      Online Course UNDERSTANDING FASHION: FROM BUSINESS TO CULTURE

      I took this online course during the Covid-19 Lockdown, as I was eager to keep on top of my education and stay productive. This course was so insightful, and I loved learning about the fashion industry from a different perspective, as the lecturers were mainly French, and previously I have only been taught from a British viewpoint.
