Henderson, NV, Fashion Schools: Design Amidst the Glitz

The official slogan of Henderson, NV, is "Henderson: a Place to Call Home." In 2006, CNN Money agreed, ranking Henderson as one of the top twenty small American cities. Just seven miles from Las Vegas, Henderson has a median household income of $55,949, and the distinction of being Nevada's second largest city.

Henderson's Fashion Scene

Graduates of a fashion school in the area can take advantage of the high-rolling glitz and glamour of The Strip to design some of the most elaborate costumes the world has ever seen. With celebrities and well-heeled pleasure-seekers strutting their stuff in clubs and casinos, local designers provide fresh, classy styles to fuel their night out on the town. Nevada's skyrocketing population also offers ample opportunities for fashion school graduates to hawk their wares. According the U.S. Census Bureau, the Las Vegas metropolitan area--of which Henderson is a part--is the fastest-growing region in the U.S.

Henderson, NV, is home to several colleges and universities where aspiring designers can study the business of retail apparel merchandising as well. Its large shopping malls, movie theater complexes, restaurants, nightlife, and casino resorts ensure that Henderson's fashion-conscious don't always have to venture into Las Vegas to seek entertainment or fashion career training. Henderson also includes a number of master-planned residential areas as well as Nevada's largest outdoor amphitheater, which hosts numerous cultural events throughout the year.
