Maybe you’re a style maven.
If any of the above sounds like you, Fashion Design might be your major.
You already know that every garment tells a story, and at Moore, you'll gain the practical, creative and business skills needed for success in the world of fashion. Our celebrated Fashion Design program will connect you with prestigious designers in Philadelphia and New York City, and in senior year, you'll send your final collection down the runway at our annual Fashion Show, which is always attended by big names in the industry. We also focus on sustainability, multiculturalism and size inclusivity, and you'll learn state-of-the-art 3D software that the pros use to save on time and fabric waste—which means that you'll have an advantage in the job market on day one.
Even if you don't already know how to sew, you'll be amazed at what you can do in just a few short years.
