You are never to old to start a career in fashion.

Antonio Banderas, 55, announced on his Instagram that he has started studying at Central St. Martins, a prestigious design school in London.

The Zorro actor is enrolled in a short courses program that fits his schedule and ends before students begin in October, Jo Ortmans, the college's press officer, told the New York Times.

The 2nd week of studies at Central St Martin begins. Intense, exciting, serious and fun all the same time. Comienza la segunda semana de estudios en Central Saint Martin (Londres). Intenso, excitante, serio y divertido al mismo tiempo. #fashion #studying #london #instafashion #centralsaintmartins A photo posted by Antonio Banderas (@antoniobanderasoficial) on Aug 24, 2015 at 5:47am PDT

Last March, Banderas explained that he had always wanted to pursue clothing design and that he needed the knowledge that schooling could give him.

"It makes me feel actually very young to put the elbows on the table again and try to understand another reality," he said on British talk show, Loose Women. "Of course, I'm not going to stop my professional life, I'll continue acting, directing and writing, but this is a new thing."

Banderas has huge footsteps to fill -- Central St. Martins' notable alumni include Alexander McQueen, John Galliano, Stella McCartney, Riccardo Tisci and Zac Posen.
