Do you light up while watching period dramas and other costume-heavy films and TV shows? Perhaps you’re at the edge of your seat, marvelling at the intricacies of the gowns and outfits? If so, this course is for you.

On our Costume with Textiles BA(Hons) degree, you’ll learn to design and create costumes for film, TV, theatre, and games. You’ll gain real-world experience via placement opportunities in theatre, film, and TV, with previous students having undertaken placements at Royal Shakespeare Company, BBC, and Open Australia.

You’ll hone your skills via a range of briefs to establish a personal identity, undertaking independent research, analysing scripts, and developing costume concepts and designs.

The course offers a professional approach to costume design and construction and you’ll investigate textiles techniques to give you a thorough grounding in all aspects of this subject area.

You’ll be taught by tutors who have professional costume-making experience, learning in our state-of-the-art, £30-million Barbara Hepworth Building.
