What is Fashion design?

Fashion design is a form of art dedicated to the creation of clothing and other lifestyle accessories.

Modern fashion design is divided into two basic categories: haute couture and ready-to-wear. 
The Haute Couture collection is dedicated to certain customers and is custom sized to fit these customers exactly. In order to qualify as a haute couture house, a designer has to be part of the Syndical Chamber for Haute Couture and show a new collection twice a year presenting a minimum of 35 different outfits each time.

The Ready-to-wear collections are standard sized, not custom made, so they are more suitable for large production runs. 
They are also split into two categories: designer/creature and confection collections.

Designer collections have a higher quality and finish as well as an unique design. They often represent a certain philosophy and are created to make a statement rather than for sale. Both ready-to-wear and haute-couture collections are presented on international catwalks.Now a days fashion designing is very famous and popular among ladies, girls and women.
