Fashion particularly plays an important part within the creative industries within the South East of England, with The City of Brighton being no exception. Brighton has a great reputation for fashion and it is one of the creative industries which has played a part within the city imaging of Brighton, helping shape it into the trendy,diverse and innovative city that it is.

The university of Brighton has produced many successful designers such as Julian Macdonald, Mark Ely, Gresham Blake and Sarah Arnett. There are many opportunities for young aspiring fashion designers in Brighton with there being a number of different companies such as brightonfrocks which help talented individuals in showcasing their talent. With Brighton being such a vibrant, expressive, and also tolerant city, thse are perfect conditions in which the fashion industry can thrive and fully flourish.
