Dear candidate,





Why would you think that only women  can be designers and have a question on boys and men?



Yes you can !  There are so many different male fashion designer in history and some who are still reigning in the fashion industry.















It is the one of the most creative course option, Fashion Design is considered to be a very prosperous vocational education stream not only in India but abroad as well. This is primarily because the Fashion industry has grown by leaps and bounds and that too within a decade.











Thus, going by these numbers it is apparent that selecting a course in Fashion Designing is bound to open up a plethora of opportunities for aspirants. However, it is worth knowing some important aspects of this course. Although Fashion Design and Textile Design are closely related to each other but there is a difference between the two. While Fashion Design is dedicated to creating clothes as well as lifestyle accessories, Textile Design course educates students about the process for creating structures as well as designs for knitted, woven, printed fabrics or surface ornamented fabrics and the likes.















Skills required to be a Fashion Designer



To build a future in this field, one needs to have an artistic and creative personality. Apart from this, aspirants need to be good at drawing and possess the knack to express their ideas by means of helpful sketches. Candidates who aspire to pursue a Fashion Design programme need to possess the below mentioned skill-set:





  • Fashion Design Skill Set




  • Creativity and artistic taste




  • Sensitivity to colours, shades and tones




  • Good communication skills




  • Originality and innovativeness




  • Ability to think in three-dimensions to translate visualisation into garments




  • Goal oriented




  • Business acumen




  • Interest in sketching




  • Eye for detail




  • Visual imagination




  • Persuasiveness




  • Observation




  • Good understanding of market and customer lifestyle


















Fashion Designing Eligibility Criteria



Aspirants who have cleared their 10+2 from any stream (Science/Commerce/Arts) can pursue a Fashion Design course at the graduation level. However, most popular Design colleges allow candidates to take part in their admission process only if they have completed their schooling from a recognised board. To pursue such a course at the postgraduate level, design graduates are preferred but aspirants from other courses/streams can also apply.











Hope I answer your question and it's helpful.





All the best!
