Fashion designing is one of the most demanding streams nowadays and will
be high in demands in coming year. Creative and professional courses will be
the choice for every fresh graduate in the coming time due its wide career scopes,
name, fame & respect. Fashion design provides you with high level knowledge
over the fashion industry including the real exposure of the industry and its
insights. Fashion design involves sketching, illustration, color sense,
textiles, merchandising, visual merchandising, fashion forecasting and many
more. One can specialize in any of this subject where they can excel their
skills & career and lead a good life ahead. Fashion designing is the way to design
clothes, footwear, accessories, hair & makeup, illustration on the basis of
an inspiration or a theme that drives you within. It is an artistic approach
towards fashion, towards enhancing your creative skills. It gives you the space
to tell your stories, to express yourself fully through sketches, fabrics,
textures, colors or anything you can relate with. The sole purpose of joining a
fashion designing course is to learn how to make or design clothes. It’s very
obvious that our first thought would be to make something for ourselves when we
will be able to convert our sketches into real garments. You will be taught
fashion illustration, pattern making, draping, software’s, handicrafts,
stitching, mood boards and color boards. You will be given deep knowledge about
different fabrics.
THREE THINGS YOU NEED MOST TO BE A
GOOD DESIGNER:
SKETCHING: Fashion design is all about portraying your
creative ideas. If you have good hands over sketching then it will be an added
advantage for you learn fast and improve. But it is not necessary. You can
learn all the skills while the course duration.
COLOR SENSE: To have good sense
over colors about where to put which color, how to mix colors, to stay updated
with upcoming trends, color forecast
etc. are very crucial skills that plays a major role in fashion
industry.
PASSION: Just joining the course won’t take you
anywhere. You must have some basic skills that can be polished through-out the course.
Skills like drawing, sketching & basic computer knowledge. Basic knowledge
in computer will definitely help you to grasp the graphics designing part very
well. You must build a habit of reading because you have to read a lot of
fashion magazines in order to stay updated with the latest trends & news on
fashion. The very important skill everyone must possess is hard-work &
dedication failing which can cost your entire career. Creativity was never god
gifted! It is being built with passion & determination.
ELIGIBILITY: The
very basic requirement for fashion designing is after HSC (10 +2). Now again it
depends whether you want to pursue a graduation course or a master’s course.
For master’s you must have a graduation in any or related field. For admission,
few colleges’ runs entrance test or aptitude tests and few colleges allow
direct admission based upon your skills and interests.
