“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is something in the air. It’s the wind that blows in the new fashion; you feel it coming, you smell it, in the sky, in the street; fashion has to do with the ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”
We can only begin to describe fashion design work with this famous quote by famous fashion designer Coco Chanel, a woman who continues to be my inspiration in the fashion world. This desirably rewarding career is creative. Transforming ideas into something wearable has many different aspects in fulfilling itself. A fashion designer is a visionary, an artist, photographer, pattern maker, seamstress, a role model, not rarely a model itself, merchandiser, environmentalist, celebrity, and all that designer brings as a person with its own unique background and inspiration. A fashion designer is a little genius that is today brainstorming and making sketches, tomorrow shooting photographs and giving interviews, and the next day fitting his models for an upcoming show. They are passion-driven because they absolutely love their job. They make the world beautiful. That’s why we love them so much! I found this wonderful book for anyone who is interested in becoming a fashion designer. Life can be a thrill if we let our dreams guide us. Voila!
