Ports 1961 has announced its annual scholarship program aimed at supporting emerging fashion talent. The scholarship, available to one student accepted into the MA Fashion course at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, underscores the brand’s commitment to fostering creativity and innovation.
Known for its global influences and modern aesthetic, Ports 1961 has collaborated with Central Saint Martins since 2015 to identify individuals who share a passion for diverse perspectives in fashion.

Over the years, recipients of the Ports 1961 scholarship have gone on to successful careers in the fashion industry. Recent awardees have shared their experiences and insights into the scholarship’s impact during their time at Central Saint Martins.
“Thanks to the Ports scholarship, I had the confidence to continue my studies in a very positive mode,” said Louis Chen, who was the Ports 1961 Scholarship recipient in 2020, of his experience.
Fabio Piras, Course Leader of MA Fashion at Central Saint Martins said, “The scholarship program helps the students immensely. It really enables the students to develop; having the time to dedicate to their studies.”
