“For us to pull back the curtain and allow them to see behind the scenes is really important because again, a lot of design schools and fashion schools don’t have enough access, you could say. So I think the access to the fashion world is really important,” said Tommy Hilfiger.
In April last year, the first THFBS announcement was made. The program has grown in the years since then. Since the beginning of classes, students have had multiple opportunities to meet professionals in the field and learn more about fashion business.
“Marketing, merchandising, production… there’s so many different levels of choices that they can go on to. They’ll have a three-year bachelor’s degree in business and then a concentration in fashion marketing and/or merchandising,” Betsy Hilfiger continued.
Elmira College has partnered with the Fashion Institutes of Technology to increase educational opportunities for students. This will give graduates from the THFBS the opportunity to apply to FIT’s Global Fashion Management (GFM) Master’s in Professional Studies (MPS) program.
Dr. Alison Wolfe, Elmira College’s Business and Economics Chair, shared some of the other partnerships the program has been working on. “We also have a partnership with Regent’s University in London; we are also exploring partnerships with another amazing fashion school, Pearl Academy in India. This is our future. This is just the beginning.”
