2 Fashion and Accessories Design specialisation subjects

Fashion and accessories design modules include garment construction, pattern making, sewing technologies, draping, textile transformation, accessory design, collection development, brand identity formation, digital fashion, virtual garment creation, and the principles of sustainable communication. Students learn to create collections — from concept development and sketches to technical implementation and final presentation.

Admission to the Fashion and Accessories Design study programme is carried out through the LAMA BPO centralised admission system or through direct admission at Vilnius Design College. Applicants must have completed secondary education and meet the minimum requirements set out in the admission rules.

Applicants to the Fashion and Accessories Design programme are required to take an entrance examination in the field of design. In study programmes in the fields of art, the grades from the secondary education certificate are not included in the competitive score — they are replaced by the entrance examination result. Applicants who do not pass the entrance examination cannot participate in the competition.

During centralised admission, the entrance examination consists of a drawing task and a colour composition task. In the drawing task, applicants draw a still life of geometric forms on an A3 sheet using pencil, while in the composition task they create a colour composition based on a given theme. Both parts of the examination are held on the same day.

The remote entrance examination is conducted via the Microsoft Teams platform. It consists of an assignment portfolio and a motivational interview. The Fashion and Accessories Design portfolio includes academic drawing works, various drawings, sketches, creative sketches on a fashion or accessory theme, an analysis of fashion styles, an interpretative collage, an analysis of works by inspiring designers or stylists, and a colour composition assignment.

During the motivational interview, the applicant’s motivation and readiness to study the chosen programme are assessed. The submitted works, their techniques, and content are also discussed. The entrance examination is assessed on a 100-point scale, with the minimum passing threshold being 20 points.

Full-time studies – EUR 2,329 per semester.
