It's really early for you to be picking a major (or a career) although it makes sense to at least think about what you might want to do down the road ... as long as you keep your mind open to other options. The majority of college students change their major at least once in four years. In fact, I've read statistics that claim this “majority" to be as high as 85%
Meanwhile, since you're just a high school sophomore now, you can look into colleges that offer summer programs or online programs in fashion-related fields. For instance, if you Google “Summer fashion programs for high school students," you will come up with options like this one at Kent State University in Ohio: https://www.kent.edu/fashion/academy which looks like it might be perfect for you. If a pricey on-campus summer program is beyond your budget, check with local community colleges and even technology high schools to see if there are summer offerings this year or next that can help to jump-start your career and give you a stronger sense of what your future major might be.
Good luck to you as you pursue your goals.
