International fashion education in Japan
In 1841, ESMOD was founded in France as Guerre-Lavigne by tailor and inventor Alexis Lavigne. It was the first fashion school in the world. The ESMOD network now has 6 schools in France and international campuses in Brazil, Japan, Norway, Germany, Indonesia, South Korea, Syria, Lebanon, Tunisia, China, and United Arab Emirates.
Founded in 1994, ESMOD JAPON is especially known for its ability to get student ready to start working as professionals when they graduate.
ESMOD JAPON employes a number of European professors so students receive an international fashion education. ESMOD JAPON runs schools in Tokyo and Osaka.

Hi Sachini,
As they have instructors from abroad, I think English is used, but you better make sure. Please contact ESMOD JAPON directly. The link is on the top of the page.

Anybody can study here, but you will need at least an intermediate level in Japanese. Most schools require that you pass a certain level of the Japanese Proficiency Test.

I think you mean scholarship? I don’t believe they do. But I suggest that you ask them for one directly.
Kjeld Duits - Friday Dec 5, 2008 at 09:16 AM (JST)
@Ladorina: I haven’t been able to find any organized fashion internship programs, although individual companies may offer them. I suggest that you contact fashion companies directly, preferably by writing letters with your resume attached. Good luck!
