Would you like to gain knowledge and skills to work on the business side of fashion, but you don’t have time to attend a full-time course during the day? Would you like to have a career in areas like merchandising, buying, sales, production, communications, sourcing and range planning? Then, you should consider our evening fashion course in trend forecasting, marketing & buying.
Our evening course in trend forecasting will start on the 5th of February, from 6:00pm to 9:00pm for 8 Tuesdays. You will study the marketing environment, apply research to inform future probable consumer needs and trends analysis, and will gain an understanding of fashion buying motives. This is the only evening course in fashion forecasting offered in Amsterdam and there is only a limited number of spaces. We like to have small groups of students rather than big classes in our intimate and friendly boutique academy, as we are keen to offer a personalised teaching to the students.

Rosie is a graphic and textile designer, with 20-year broad international experience gained by working with textile companies and mills in the field of design and with brands in the commercial and manufacturing side.

The evening course in trend forecasting, fashion marketing and fashion buying covers topics like understanding consumers, consumer profile, trend prediction, buying and target markets, promotion campaigns, sales promotion, fashion PR, fashion marketing & promotion trends, fashion marketing frameworks for research & analysis, fashion market level research.
