ENROLLMENT FORM: Student Application

ABOUT DECÖ  DECÖ is the World Fashion Council's professional education counter-part.  Our workshops are in high demand because they are taught by industry and educational professionals (many traveling from the best fashion education programs in the US such as Parsons, Pratt & FIT). We restrict enrollment in each of its classes to provide an intimate learning environment and ensure that each of our students has the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed in the field of fashion.

This reflects our educational philosophy, our personal commitment to our students and our ongoing efforts to reclaim the role of professional training, apprenticeships and real-world learning in fashion education. In addition to exciting programs such as the Fashion Stylist Workshop Certificate and our Fashion Trend-Forecasting Certificate we also offer a Fashion Sewing Workshop Series and a Fashion Illustration Workshop Series. 

 ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES OF INTEREST INCLUDE:

(1) Our special fashion portfolio workshops (a favorite for those preparing to apply to the best fashion colleges and universities in the world).

(2)  Our new online Fashion Stylist and Fashion Trend Forecasting Certificates, which makes our workshops available internationally and to World Fashion Council members wherever they might be.
