Job Overview
• Fashion design is the designing and
creating of new fashion trends.
• The more unique your creations, the
more successful you’ll be.
• It’s a glamorous career with a lot of
money to be made.
Why are you interested in this
career?
It wasn’t until I was 13 years old that I
decided I wanted to start choosing my
own clothes and picking out different
fashion accessories to match my
outfits. Ever since then, all I’ve been
interested in is fashion. I often watch
fashion shows such as “America’s Next
Top Model” and sit back in amazement
at the different fashion styles.
Education Pathway
To succeed in the fashion career, I plan
on studying at the London College of
Fashion. I have previously taken a
course in CADD, which should be of
great benefit when applying for my
position. The total cost of my entire
education should vary between
£25,000 - £30,000.

Salary
The salary for a fashion designer
varies depending on the amount of
experience you have. A newly trained
designer should expect a yearly wage
or around $10,000. But the more
experienced you are, the more this will
increase. If you get noticed, you could
expect a yearly wage of over a million
dollars!
Future Outlook
Fashion design will always be a great
source of income. New fashions are
always in demand and always will be.
Celebrities are always looking for new
designs, to make them stand out from
the crowd. New fashion ideas will
always be appreciated.
Working Hours
Depending on personal preference,
fashion designers can work for a
company, coming up with new ideas
along side other designers, with a
guaranteed wage. Or, you can go it alone
and become a self-employed designer.
You’re not guaranteed a wage, and it’s a
lot of hard work, but if you create a good
enough design, you’re in for a lot of profit.
Risk of Injury
Supposing you know how to work a
sewing machine, and take all the
safety precautions when using the
necessary tools, the risk of injury in
the fashion industry is fairly low.
However, it is a fast paced job and if
you’re not careful, you could easily
loose focus and cause some damage
to yourself.
Related Occupations
Another occupation that I would
consider from the fashion industry is a
fashion reporter. Fashion reporters are
responsible for the write up of the
latest designs and ideas, witnessed
first hand from the runway. This
interests me a lot because fashion and
writing are the two things I love most
of all.
