Fashion

Fashion used to be dictated by the royalty at the courts. Designers were anonymous tailors who only become independent creators after Charles Frederick Worth (1826-1895) started his own couture house where he would tell clients what to wear and what would suit them.

Now fashion is a multi billion dollar industry that patronizes fashion artists to pursue their own fantastic inclinations to the extent of almost bizarre haute couture and employs thousands of laborers across the globe.

Reflecting the diversity of the industry, fashion degrees offer a lot more than just fashion design. Fashion merchandising, business for fashion, textiles, fashion journalism, visual merchandising, store design, menswear, global fashion industry, and shoe design are just some career/ degree paths to begin with. To know which shoe fits you best, you should analyze your skills, interests and seek out what the experts say, before signing up with any online degree.

Keeping in mind the obvious diversity; fashion curriculum could vary. From design software, 3D modeling and animation to learning about threads, cuts and dyes, your coursework will be technical and theoretical.
