4 things every young fashion designer must know

 ''Don't let dreams just be dreams,with God, hard work and determination,it can be a reality'' - danielle & chantelle

As a young fashion designer, you need to know fashion is deep, there is more to fashion than just putting on your desired on clothing, fashion is business, fashion is liftsyle. lets take a these short 4 points.

1.- Perfecting your craft.- To be a successful fashion designer you need to be very good at what you do. very few young girls take fashion beyond just wearing of clothes and taking pictures. you need to be very versatile;  which includes an A level sketching ability, you need to think creatively and come up with your own concepts and designs.

Are you learning how to sew already? this is important, how important? you know how important  chilli pepper is to indomie right? that is how a good practical sewing ability is to your fashion career.

you also need to have a very good mind sight, being able to forecast trends on instagram and the likes.

2.- What parts of fashion excites you? - what are you really interested in? you need to pick a specialty. i'm sure you see all those creative styles on Bellanaija and Asoebibella. Don't try to go for generality, this can be exhausting. decide fast on how its going to be, save yourself some trouble and work effectively.

3.- Be realistic- we all love the fame that come with whatever we do right? if it's something positive though. fashion is diverse, and only special people like you can handle it. Even when you see those really creative designs on AsoEbibella(Bella is really great for inspiration) but those set of people are just one of the few you might not get to at first, why not try and dominate your locality with your own uniqueness? be a big fish in a small pond.

Do your thing and let your creativity speak for itself and in no time you might get chocked with fame. it's just about knowing what you really want and working hard to get it.

4.- Inspiration- Instagram can be a very good tool for inspiration. most favorably Bellanaija's account. you really can make something happen, even in this recession. check out the styles, designs and fabrics. you know we nigerians have love for something glamorous and clothes that look good on us.

Observe every inch and piece you see out there about your work. if not now, when?

You should share this with your friends, ask questions and let me know how i can help. God bless.
