London is widely recognized as one of the fashion capitals of the world

London is widely recognized as one of the fashion capitals of the world. Dating as far back as the Roman Empire, London has served as a worldwide hub of culture and trade. In present day, fashion represents the UK’s largest creative industry, and London’s level of influence is rivaled by just a handful of cities.

Select Travel Study is proud to offer an exciting opportunity for American students to come to the UK, and experience what makes the London fashion scene so special first hand. This program will cover all aspects 

The program is suitable for all undergraduate students, but of special interest to those in the fields of design, retail merchandizing, and textiles.  We suggest it also forms a wonderful elective option for interested students of all disciplines.
