Using a form factor approach, we define and compute the character of the fusion product of rectangular representations of \widehat{su}(r+1) . This character decomposes into a sum of characters of irreducible representations, but with q-dependent coefficients. We identify these coefficients as (generalized) Kostka polynomials. Using this result, we obtain a formula for the characters of arbitrary integrable highest weight representations of \widehat{su}(r+1) in terms of the fermionic characters of the rectangular highest weight representations.
