Yelp.com Review - by Anna Y.

1.0 of 5 stars. My mom actually went to this school and I thought I would maybe like it. But I was still unsure until I spoke to one of the members at F.i.d.m. First of all, I've gotten tricked to sign all these…

Yelp.com Review - by Ashley C.

3.0 of 5 stars. I'm on the fence with this store. Yes, everything is cheap, but you have to really dig to find stuff that you can wear as is. I bought a cute jacket for $12 but I have to get some buttons for it.…

Yelp.com Review - by Christine L.

1.0 of 5 stars. I do not know why Sunset Magazine (9/08 edition) and other Yelpers are raving about this place. I did not see fashion labels/designer label clothing. I saw a lot of torn/dyed/inked items on the racks.…

Yelp.com Review - by Agatha M.

4.0 of 5 stars. Cool place to rummage through and a few really good finds (like jeans that normally sell for $159 for $30!). Kind of hard to find stuff that actually fits due to the removal of size tags and such,…

4.0 of 5 stars. Hmm..I'm currently a fidm student, and I check out this place once, if not twice a week to look for fabric. Every day there's new loads of designer fabrics that get donated to the store and you can…

Yelp.com Review - by Amanda M.

2.0 of 5 stars. I wish my parents would let me drop out. There's no real focus here. It's definitely become extremely Hollywood. There's always filming on campus for commercials and stuff...it just gets in the way.…

5.0 of 5 stars. I graduated way back in 1990!! Hard to believe, but now I live right across the street from the campus I watched them build while I was going to school in an office building. I LOVE FIDM! My little…

Yelp.com Review - by Anya K.

5.0 of 5 stars. I am currently attending FIDM for (guess) Fashion Design. Yes, I am the classic fashion design kid... But so far it has been pretty fun and I can see how the things that we're learning are relevant.…

5.0 of 5 stars. I went to FIDM for a graphic design degree (shocking: it's not only a fashion school!). I learned a lot, it's a good name to have on your resume and I'm very happy I graduated from here. The teachers…
