    Organisation Background

    About usJCA | London Fashion Academy is a unique modern-day undertaking by one of the worlds most renowned contemporary designers, Prof. Dato' Jimmy Choo OBE.

    Positioned as an industry leader in the field of fashion education it follows and positively reacts to the developing higher education landscape in the UK and the Ministers call for 'new and innovative providers opening high quality higher education'.

    The Academy offers both undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes in a range of practice-based fashion design and entrepreneurship programmes that allow learners to pursue a very high degree of specialism.

    There are two routes available to prospective students: 1) an immersive, professional practice experience with incubation in Mayfair, and 2) a timetabled professional experience within an artisan Maker Space in West London.

    Inclusive in its approach, in terms of reach and scholarships given, the Academy seeks to support the best and most gifted designers to fulfil their ambitions and transition from higher education into entrepreneurship and/or employment.

    As a selective institution, recruitment is based on academic and creative potential expressed through prior qualifications and portfolio and behaviours and attitudes through academic interview and engagement.
    The bar is set high with a vested interest in supporting those who want to achieve.

    JCA Culture

    Our academic staff are the best in their field, professionally within fashion, and pedagogically within education. They are also friendly and approachable people. People who want to work with other, similar minded, people – and together, to create a professionally focused learning community.

    Lecturers are employed as 'Mentors' and deliver more than taught sessions; they interact, engage, and participate with learners and guide the learning journey. They excite, provocate and disrupt ways of thinking. They support, protect and inculcate excellence. However, most of all, they motivate, encourage and inspire.

    Being an aspiring Designer at the Academy is much more than being a student it is about setting a direction and being mentored on that journey – from campus to beyond.
