Our Vision

To be a leading creative institution that inspires, nurtures, and empowers innovative designers, artists, and entrepreneurs, fostering a dynamic community where creativity knows no limits. Kellyz-Kz Kolect envisions a future where artistic expression and design thinking shape industries, cultures, and lives.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

“Kellyz-Kz Kolect teaching is steeped in “traditional” skills. Our students learn traditional garment making techniques, and they learn it fully. Then, if they want or need to do it faster and cheaper, they can choose to do so, but if they need to do it well, they know how because of our training.”

2-Year Certificate, or 3-Year Diploma

The School of Fashion Design is a fully licensed studio school offering a 2-year (20 courses) Certificate in Fashion Design and a 3-year Diploma in Fashion Design.

Students may elect to complete our Certificate in Fashion Design on a full or part time basis.
Full-time students are required to take at least 4 courses each semester (fall/spring) to complete the program in two years. Students can also elect to take courses over the summer.
Part-time students typically take 1-3 courses per semester.

Students completing the full 20 course program receive a Certificate in Fashion Design from SFD. After completing the certificate requirements, students may elect to complete a third year of study to receive their Diploma in Fashion Design. Working directly with a faculty advisor, students develop their own self-directed, in-depth independent study in a concentration of their choice: bridal, childrenswear, lingerie, menswear, sportswear, swimwear, and more.
