In need of some advice and/or guidance:
>be me
>18 and british
>doing some shitty journalism course at a shitty uni
>have little to no interest for the course or general career options
>take a huge interest in fashion over the past 2 years, but not really enough to get really into it
>now deciding i'd much rather find a course in fashion design or something related

One issue, my qualifications are all in english and history, no textiles or art qualifications in sight so getting into a uni which offers a course i'd like to do is currently near unavailable

So, /fa/, my question is, for anyone who is taking some kind of degree in this field, what are my best options to focus my future career on fashion? (preferably doing a degree in it aswell)
Thanks!

OP here, completely forgot to add:
Would it be worth taking some form of summer course? For anyone that has done anything like this, is it worth it?

do a sewing or pattern cutting evening class. If you like it, I'd recommend doing an art foundation and taking the fashion pathway, then see if you want to do a degree in it, and what specific area of the industry you might be interested in. you will meet other creative people and build connections which will set you on a good track. it may also help you realise it is not for you which is also a good thing
