Mastère

After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Fashion Marketing & Design, I'm now setting up my own freelance business. My aim is to set up an online training center for adults, covering sewing and pattern-making. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I'm in charge of creating the training content and materials, communicating on the creation of my structure and all the administrative side.

Discover
Bachelor

I took the Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design, Modeling & Marketing, with a specialization in Marketing in 3rd year. Following my end-of-studies internship at Ba&Sh, I stayed on with them on a freelance contract for a few months, before being recruited on a permanent contract at Comptoir des Cotonniers in March 2020. My missions are very varied: management & creation of visual and digital communication media and internal communication.

Further information

The 3rd year of the Bachelor's program is a pivotal year for professional integration, focusing on each student's professional project.
The program offers students two specializations: Fashion Design (initial training) and Fashion Marketing (work-study contract), leading to the final project of Brand Creation, on which they work together.
The culmination of a first post-baccalaureate cycle, students benefit from a strong professional experience with several periods in companies, giving them an in-depth knowledge of job opportunities once they have obtained their diploma.
For those who have chosen the marketing specialization and are doing their first year on a work-study contract, this is also a great opportunity to build post-graduation employability opportunities.

The dual skills taught enable students to cover a range of subjects, from applied fashion arts (design, sewing, pattern-making, etc.) to digital strategy, communications, marketing and branding.
Our approach is unique in the landscape of fashion schools, and produces profiles capable of versatility as well as specialization, and, in our view, perfectly suited to applied knowledge in higher education.

Choosing a "grande école" adapted to your ambitions and personality can sometimes take longer than expected. At SUPMODE, students with a Bac+2, BTS, licence, Bachelor 2 (with a validated baccalauréat) can join our 3rd year to focus on Fashion Design and Brand Development.
For admission to be acceptable, students must have validated a number of ECTS credits corresponding to a validated Bac+2 level, i.e. 120 credits.

With advanced operational skills and a perfect understanding of the strategic challenges facing a fashion or lifestyle brand, our students are fully equipped to enter the world of work, and to continue their studies if they so wish. The qualification awarded enables our students to enter a master's or mba program at the national graduate school of their choice. They can also go on to complete SUPMODE's Bac+5 cycle with a Master's degree in Fashion Marketing and Communication (RNCP). The business skills imparted to our students throughout the Bachelor's program enable them to bring a real strategic approach to creative companies, just like those coming out of a business school, with the added advantage of greater expertise and experience in fashion, luxury and lifestyle.
