From “which course is best for fashion designing” to “how much can a fashion designer earn,” every student begins with questions.
In this blog, we’ve compiled the 10 most searched questions (and answers!) by those who want to enter the fashion world. If you’re someone thinking of building a career in this creative and fast-growing industry — start here.
1. Which course is best for fashion designing?
The best course is one that:
- Teaches you practical garment-making
- Covers subjects like CAD, styling, draping, and business

👉 That’s why students prefer skill-based, online fashion mastery programs that include all of the above.
2. Can I start fashion designing after 10th or 12th?
Yes, absolutely.
Fashion designing doesn’t need a college degree — it needs creativity and consistency. Many students start right after 10th or 12th and build careers faster than 3-year college courses.
3. What do fashion designers actually do?
They don’t just draw clothes. They:
- Stitch custom outfits
