WHAT DOES A FASHION DESIGNER DO?
FASHION DESIGNERS create clothing and accessory designs. They may plan the production
and marketing of their creations. Designers specialize in one type of garment or
accessory such as men's or women's wear, children's garments, swimwear, lingerie,
handbags, or shoes. Some high-fashion Designers are self-employed and design for
individual clients. They make fashion news by establishing the silhouette, colors,
and kinds of materials that will be worn each season. Other self-employed, high-fashion
Designers cater to specialty stores or high-fashion department stores. They design
original garments as well as follow the established fashion trends. Designers who
work for apparel manufacturers do less original work; they adapt fashions set by
other Designers for the mass market.
Designers' Assistants in apparel manufacturing are exposed to the fast pace of production
schedules while performing routine aspects of the job. Assistant Designers acquire
the knowledge of what creations will sell at a profit in an intended market, within
a defined price range, at a particular time of the year. They learn the personality
of firms, types of stores that buy the merchandise, and the age and tastes of the
stores' clientele.
Fashion Designers perform the following tasks:
- Sketch their ideas.
- Draw and cut patterns to create sample garments.
- Select fabric and trimmings.
- Combine basic dressmaking and tailoring principles with flat pattern
work and draping techniques.
- Fit and modify the finished garment.
- Arrange showings for press and buyers when the sample garment line
is ready.
- Compare merchandise with those of the competitors.
- Keep current on trends by reading trade magazines and attending
fashion shows.
- Visit textile showrooms to keep up to date on latest fabrics.
WHAT SKILLS ARE IMPORTANT?
Fashion Designers frequently use the following skills, knowledge, and abilities:
- Design - Knowledge of design techniques, principles, tools and
instruments involved in the production and use of precision technical plans, blueprints,
drawings, and models.
- Idea Generation - Generating a number of different approaches to
problems.
- Active Learning - Working with new material or information to grasp

VASTUSHASTRA
Role of India in Vastushastra
India is the mother of vastushastra as our saints formulate principles of vastu
here. Vastu was written down thousands of years ago where our sages kept in mind
the effect of energies and sunlight and balance all the five elements in a manner
to have the maximum benefit out of it.
Vastu Shilpa Shastra, the ancient mystic science and the art of designing and constructing
buildings finds its origin in Stapatya Veda, which in turns is a part of Atharvana
Veda, one of the four Vedas. According to modern historians Ferguson, Havell and
Cunningham, this science developed during the period of 6000 BC and 3000 BC.
Proofs of vaastu shastra can be found during the time of Ramayan and Mahabharat.
In the cities of Mohanjodaro and Harappa the application of vaastu shastra can be
seen. In the Matsya Purana, seventeen preceptors of Vaastu have been mentioned.
These principles, called Vastu Shastra, were evolved over thousands of years out
of experience and foresight of ancient Sages of India and are very valuable for
the well being of mankind. According to Shastras, if we worship, revere and respect
the lords of these eight directions, they will shower on us their blessings and
benefits. Our saints have searched vastu shastra; we are only Researching it.
The following lines depicts the importance of vastu shastra :
SHASTRENANEN SARVASYA LOKASYA PARAM SUKHAM CHATURVERG PHALA PRAPTI SHLOKSHCH
BHAVEDYUVAM SHLIP SHASTRA PARIGYAN MRITYOAPI SUJETAAM VRAJET PARMANAND JANAK DEVANAMI
DIMIRITAM SHILP VINA NAHI JAGTISHU LOKESHU VIDYATE JAGAD VINA NA SHILPANCH VARTATE
VASAU PRABHO
Meaning - Because of VASTU SHASTRA, the whole universe gets good health, happiness
and all round prosperity. Human beings attain divinity with this knowledge. Followers
of VASTU SHASTRA get not only worldly pleasure but also experience heavenly bliss.
With the above shloka, it is very much clear that VASTU SHASTRA is universal. It
is not confined to any particular group of people in the development of all human
being irrespective of any caste, creed or religion.
