What is fashion designing?
Fashion Designing is the ‘art’ of applying designs, aesthetics, and creativity to clothing and accessories.

The questions we face from most of the aspirants of this field vary from “Do we need to have a professional degree for taking up this career?” to “Do we need to be really good at drawing to master this course?”
