i find fashion design very interesting but am very bad at it
I used to have pretty boring fashion too, but I've learned a thing or two. The trouble is that fashion really changes with time and culture so it's hard to keep up.
Interestingly according to the bearu of labor statstictics you need a bachlor's degree so its not something you can just pick up but have to train
Oh yeah, being a fashion designer is no easy job. They need to design clothes that are functional and aesthetically pleasing at the same time, which is quite tough.
you also have to know technology because now big fashion houses like michael kors and alexander wang are turning to online sketches that have specific programs
That's another good point. In addition to that, they have to consider who is wearing their clothes so they can determine what materials to use.
 The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects opportunities in fashion design to diminish through 2020, and those with college degrees could become more sought after.
Oh I'm sure, being educated is a big deal in the fashion industry. Learning to use cheap and expensive fabrics to interpret trends is not for just anyone.
