So, fashion is my thing, and I'm hyped about the idea of studying it at an HBCU. A lot of the info I've found is kinda vague. Does anyone know which HBCUs have fashion programs? I'd love to be in an environment that celebrates the history and legacy of the Black community while pursuing my love for design.
Absolutely, it's exciting that you're looking to combine your passion for fashion with the enriching environment that HBCUs provide. Howard University, for example, has a well-regarded program known as the Fashion Design program within their Department of Art. Another notable institution is Clark Atlanta University, which offers a major in Fashion Design and Merchandising. Additionally, you might consider checking out the Fashion Merchandising program at Delaware State University.
These programs not only offer academic depth in fashion and design but also incorporate the rich cultural and historical perspectives of the Black community into their curriculum. When searching for the right program, I recommend reaching out to school departments directly, as they can provide the most detailed and up-to-date information on what their fashion programs entail. Best of luck in finding the perfect program that aligns with your interests!
