     Lin,
 it might be worth contacting the textiles departments at various universities. I'm an alumnus of the clothing engineering department at UMIST (although not touched a sewing machine in years) and I know Central Saint Martins in London is very highly regarded (lots of the top UK designers studied there).
 
 good luck!
