In short

Moore College of Art & Design in Philadelphia was founded in 1848 by Sarah Worthington Peter as a visual arts college to help women achieve financial independence through career-focused education, and today offers ten BFA programmes. Its Fashion Design BFA teaches sketching, draping and garment construction across couture, ready-to-wear, streetwear and eveningwear, with costume design for a live performance in collaboration with Philadelphia Ballet and a senior thesis collection presented at the college's annual fashion show. Every student completes a guaranteed paid internship.
