How to Become a Fashion Designer
Most fashion designers have a bachelor’s degree in a related field, such as fashion design or fashion merchandising. Employers usually seek applicants with creativity, as well as a good technical understanding of the production process for clothing, accessories, or footwear.
Pay
The median annual wage for fashion designers was $62,860 in May 2012.
