Fashion Design

Fashion designers typically do the following:
Study fashion trends and anticipate designs that will appeal to consumers. Decide on a theme for a collection. Use computer-aided design (CAD) programs to create designs. Visit manufacturers or trade shows to get samples of fabric. Select fabrics, embellishments, colors, or a style for each garment or accessory. Work with other designers or team members to create prototype designs. Present design ideas to the creative director or showcase them in fashion or trade shows. Market designs to clothing retailers or directly to consumers. Oversee the final production of their designs.
