Centre for Sustainable Fashion

We are Centre for Sustainable Fashion (CSF), an award-winning  University of the Arts London (UAL) research, education and knowledge exchange centre based at London College of Fashion (LCF). 

We provoke,

challenge and question the fashion status quo.

Inviting ideas of the way things might be, based on the core value of living well together in a more than human world.

Open Morning Tutorials for UAL Students 

CSF are offering current UAL students free one-on-one 25-minute in-person tutorials with a CSF team member during term time.

This is a brilliant platform for inquisitive students working on projects inclusive of sustainability to discuss their work with fashion and sustainability leaders in their respective area of experience.
