Hello Thara Treesa.....

The basic difference between apparel designing and fashion designing is

APPAREL DESIGNING is not the most used way but business use this to describe the things they are selling or distributing for other producers of clothing.

FASHION DESIGNING involves context and ingenuity,it is something which helps us create new trends for the market,but basically fashion designers just design the clothes they will not stich.

Thank you

Apparel designing refers to designer who specialize in one type of designing line or category. For example, when you enter a garment shop, you find various sections, such as men section, kids section, women section, party wear, casual wear such as such as Yves Saint Laurent, W, Hugo Boss, Lilliput, etc. All this falls under apparel designing.

On the other hand, costume designer is someone who is involved in the intricate detailing and designing to create a look of the garment. They study the fashion trends and make the end product aesthetically pleasing for the consumers.

Hello Thara,

Apparel designer is someone who specialises in one type of design which could be kids wear, active wear, party wear etc whereas a costume designer is one who designs intricate and grand costumes for stage shows, television, movies etc. Hope that answered your question!
