I believe a BDes degree in Fashion Design has more employment and higher salary prospects than a BA, especially when it comes to the creative and technical elements in the Fashion field. A BA in Fashion Design is more focused on the theoretical aspect of Fashion, like principles, history, and focus. For BA Fashion Design graduates, it is advisable to pursue further education, like a master's degree or a Diploma course.
