Become a fashion designer
You know you're destined to be a fashion designer if: a) spent most of his childhood making clothes for Barbie dolls instead of playing with friends, b) read fashion magazines instead of your books from school, c) conducted a shop out of your basement at age 10. In other words, if you want to be the next Yves Saint Laurent, it helps to be completely and totally obsessed with fashion.
However, there are many aspects of the profession. Working as a fashion designer may well mean supervising a design team at a sportswear company as the production of a label under his own name. Although the former career may not seem as glamorous as it surely will make your life less stressful. To create your own label takes a lot time, dedication and hard work. Not to mention living just above the poverty line for several years.
Choosing a strategy
There are different ways to choose a career in fashion, as there are styles of design. Polo Ralph Lauren's empire was founded in a small tie collection that he sold at Bloomingdales. Helmut Lang decided to open his own clothing store when I could not find a shirt that he liked. Michael Kors built a network of customers by selling clothes in a fashion boutique in New York. However, most people that the best basis for a design career is to get a degree in fine arts at a school fashion prestige. Besides teaching the craft, a good school will also add credibility to your resume. "We live in a society in name brand, and the name of a good school behind you really helps, "says Carol Mongo, Director of Fashion at Parsons School of Design in Paris.
Applying to a school
There are plenty of colleges that have fashion programs, but only a handful has the kind of reputation that really can boost your career. It is difficult to get into these schools as competition is high, and tend to be very selective. To apply by submitting a portfolio of drawings of their designs. "We can teach you not to be creative - you have to bring your creativity to us and guide us in its way," says Carol Mongo. It is recommended students to gain experience before applying seam. The drawing is also an important skill for a designer - is how to communicate their ideas. In order to build an impressive portfolio that is a good idea to have some experience in drawing, art classes will help you make them understand the form and proportion. But you do not have to be a drawer of experts to be accepted into a school. "The most important quality we seek in our students is that they are truly passionate and exuberant fashion," Mongo said. "If you have wonderful ideas but can not draw, there are ways to get around it. For example, you can put your designs on a mannequin and take photos of it. "
What school will do for you
Most fashion shows are three to four years. During that time, you will have fine arts classes and preparing the study, the composition of color and form. You will also learn pattern making, cover and cutting techniques. A of the most important advantages of design schools is that they work very closely with industry. Parsons, for example, have "critical design projects, where successful designers like Donna Karan and Michael Kors work directly with students who graduate. Ambitious students also have the opportunity to win prestigious awards and scholarships, bring much attention and financial support. A very important event is the fashion show at the end of last semester, when graduating students show their collections. A lot of important people in the fashion industry attend these shows to find new talent. It is also an opportunity to be really outrageous and get noticed by the media. Hussein Chalayan, for example, became instantly infamous when he showed the rotten clothing he had buried in his backyard for his graduate program at Saint Martins.
Alternative routes
"Let's be realistic," says Carol Mongo in Parsons, "School is not for everyone. If you're looking to get a job in the fashion industry - not a career as a designer - who probably do not need to go to school. "If you want to work as a seamstress or fashion designer, the best is probably to apply for an internship in a house and work upward. However, there are many examples of famous designers who started as interns with no formal training. For example, the brightest star Dior's new designer men wear Hedi Slimane, had a degree in journalism, when he began working with the designer of men use Joseph Levy. Balenciaga Nicolas Ghesquière is another shining example of a successful designer who learned the job hands-on as an assistant to Jean-Paul Gaultier. Usually, you apply for an internship by submitting a portfolio to a fashion house that interests you, but it's a good idea to call beforehand to see exactly what they need. It is also important to note that competition is fierce, and unless you have personal connections, it is very difficult to get an internship without an education.
There are also designers, as Luella Bartley, who started his own business after working as stylists for several years, thus building a network of industry as well as a sense of good trade.
Understand the business
Unfortunately, not enough for a designer to be creative, you also must have a business sense. As fashion becomes more and more driven by business, it is important to be aware of the business climate and understanding of the mechanics behind it. For religiously reading business documents such as "Women's Wear Daily" will get a lot of valuable information. If you want to run their own businesses, have to be very organized and learn at least the basics of the economy. A lot of fashion schools are currently increasing business classes in their curriculum. "Our Students should be smart enough to know how to negotiate a contract, or to choose a partner, "says Carol Mongo. It is perhaps significant that many of the designers who are really successful today, like Calvin Klein or Tom Ford, are involved in every aspect of business - from licensing strategies ad campaigns actually designing clothes.
