Abstract
The place of intercultural competence in the general structure of the professional
competences of specialist in the field of fashion design is defined. The special importance of the
formation of intercultural competence for the training of a global student, as a composition of
communication, cultural intelligence and professional intercultural abilities is proved. The analysis
of structurally logical connections in the process of forming the basic competences of the designer
of clothes is carried out. The ways of forming integral competence are determined. The main
structural approaches to the introduction of the intercultural competence of the designer of clothes
are offered. The schemes with parallel, sequential, individually parallel, combined formation of
intercultural competence are developed. The parallel scheme is characterized by additional special
courses on the formation of common intercultural competencies, as well as language practices. The
sequential scheme assumes the integration of the special competencies of the designer of clothing
in special pre-degree intercultural courses and an intercultural diploma project. An individual
scheme presupposes the formation of intercultural competence within individual professional
competences. The combined scheme combines the basic algorithms.
