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 design director.
