At Belmont University’s O’More College of Architecture & Design, our Fashion Merchandising program develops students who are ready to lead the industry with strategy, creativity and intention. We believe fashion is a language, and our students learn to speak it through business acumen and innovation. They are taught to think like merchants, imagine like designers and make decisions grounded in purpose and clarity.
Located in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee, students are immersed in a thriving creative ecosystem recognized as the number one city in the nation to launch a fashion business. Through proximity to designers, retailers, showrooms and emerging brands, O’More students experience firsthand how style, culture and commerce intersect.
Our program curriculum reflects what happens when curiosity meets preparation. Merchandising students gain expertise in:
- Buying
- Product Development
- Branding & Marketing
- Retail Analytics
- Entrepreneurial Strategy
They also strengthen their skills and leadership by taking design courses that help them understand how garments are imagined, constructed and communicated. O’More students graduate fluent in fashion from concept to consumer.
Our faculty are bold thinkers and recognized leaders in the industry locally and globally, ensuring students learn from those shaping the field right now. They bring their scholarship, stories and professional networks to the classroom, opening doors for the students they mentor.
At O’More, fashion is rooted in purpose. Guided by Belmont’s Christ-centered mission, students are challenged to honor the whole person and to design solutions that reflect empathy, dignity and cultural awareness. Because we know that when you understand people, you create fashion that truly matters.
O’More students leave prepared, inspired and equipped to create a fashion future where innovation meets intention, and business meets belonging — here in Nashville and far beyond.
