Message from the President
Welcome to LIM College
There are unlimited career opportunities in the business of fashion and lifestyle.
But what is “the business of fashion and lifestyle?” It is a singular term for a multi-faceted global industry that accounts for trillions of dollars in revenue and employs hundreds of thousands of people. From a business perspective, lifestyle consists of the brands, products, and services we consume or buy that, like fashion, go beyond serving a functional purpose by allowing us to communicate how we see ourselves to the outside world. Fashion and lifestyle are both grounded in creativity, self-expression, and connection.
The business of fashion and lifestyle goes light years beyond clothes and shoes. It is comprised of many inter-connected and related fields, including entertainment, sports, beauty and cosmetics, interior design and decorating, travel and leisure, cannabis, and more.
As a student at LIM College, you will discover a world of opportunities and experiences. Whether you join us on campus in the heart of New York City or earn your degree online, you will make connections that could lead to your first—or next—job, and you will learn directly from industry practitioner faculty who combine professional experience with a personal approach.
