Here are the list of Fashion Designing Skills to Develop in Lockdown:
Creativity
It doesn’t matter whether you are just starting out or are already a learned person in the field of design, creativity is one of the most fundamental assets that you can possess. You need the kind of creativity that tells you what the end product would be like even before you begin working. Practice and learn by imitation through as many sources of inspiration as possible.
3D Designing
Fashion designing is all about how quickly and efficiently can you present what is in your head as the final product, even if it is a drawing. What goes beyond a simple drawing in today’s world is a 3D representation of the idea. There are tonnes of 3D design software and apps available in the market that you can use to enhance your fashion designing skills. If you master this art, you will significantly reduce the design-to-market time of your clothing, making you an unbeatable master of the art.
Digital Drawing and Sketching
Yes, there is nothing better than drawing on a paper and letting your imagination run wild with your designs. But with the advent of better and more realistic technology, digital drawing and sketching are getting better, easier, and available to everyone. Take out your tablet or iPad and begin your stint into digital drawing.
Multitasking
Multitasking has always been a great friend of fashion designers. It helps you climb several roadblocks at once, and gives you the chance to excel in as many fields as you want to. Improve your multitasking skills during this time.
Business Knowledge
Fashion designing, outside of your college, is a business after all. You need to understand the market dynamics and the needs of the demographic before you design something. You may learn all the marketing skills with an MBA course from the top private university in Jaipur, but until that possibility comes to be true, it is more important that you learn some on your own. Business knowledge is an absolute necessity when it comes to excelling in fashion.
With these skills under your belt, you will come out a better designer than you were when you went into the lockdown. Investing in your skills is the best way to making yourself more professional and skilled, and thus emerging out as a designer that is loved the world around.
