Welcome to the Dress Up College of Fashion, where we believe fashion is more than clothing—it’s a powerful engine for culture, commerce, and change. Established by visionary leader Mr Eric Akwabeng, Dress Up was founded on the principle that the next generation of industry leaders must be equally adept in design creativity and business innovation.
We are a vibrant, rigorous institution dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what fashion can be, from the sustainable supply chain to the final digital runway. Our location, nestled in the heart of a globally recognized fashion capital, ensures that our campus is a constant extension of the industry itself.
Our Defining Pillars
Our curriculum and community are built around three core values that distinguish a Dress Up education:
💡 Industry-Integrated Learning
We don't wait for our students to graduate to start their careers. Our faculty consists of active industry professionals who bring real-time challenges and cutting-edge knowledge directly into the studio. Through mandatory internships, brand partnerships, and client-based projects, our students develop the professional portfolio and network needed to step directly into a career.
🌎 Sustainable & Ethical Practice
The future of fashion must be responsible. Dress Up is committed to leading this shift. We weave sustainability, circular design, and ethical sourcing into the core of every program, from Fashion Marketing to Textile Design. Our goal is to train designers and managers who can innovate beautiful solutions without compromising the planet or its people.
