Fashion Design Schools in France
Fashion
design is the applied art dedicated to the design of
clothing and lifestyle accessories created within the
cultural and social influences of a specific time.
Fashion design differs from costume design due to its core
product having a built in obsolescence usually of one to two
seasons. A season is defined as either autumn/winter or
spring/summer. Fashion design is generally considered to
have started in the 19th century with Charles Frederick
Worth who was the first person to sew their label into the
garments that they created. While all articles of clothing
from any time period are studied by academics as costume
design, only clothing created after 1858 could be considered
as fashion design.
Fashion designers design clothing and accessories. Some
high-fashion designers are self-employed and design for
individual clients. Other high-fashion designers cater to
specialty stores or high-fashion department stores. These
designers create original garments, as well as those that
follow established fashion trends. Most fashion designers,
however, work for apparel manufacturers, creating designs of
men’s, women’s, and children’s fashions for the mass market.
Designer brands which have a 'name' as their brand such as
Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren are likely to be designed by a
team of individual designers under the direction of a
designer director.
