Teen Vogue Tip #1 Use if: You are/want to be a Fashion Designer ♥

Teen Vogue Tip #1: Hone your basic skills. You have to be able to sketch(in your own creative way; not neccesarily well). The two important things for a designer are carrying an idea and being able to translate. (tip from the Teen Vogue Handbook)





Use this Tip If: You dream of becoming a fashion designer

  1. I definitely agree. I was in Fashion Merchandising in school or awhile but eventually dropped out because I just didn't have the talent for it or the passion. It sucks that people who have such great ideas may never get to realize their dreams because they can;t draw, but on the other hand, you need to be able to translate your ideas to others.

  8. I think it's a good tip but a little redundant as anyone who wants to be a designer probably already knows how to sketch because if they didn't, they couldn't be a designer and they probably already do sketch a lot because it is their passion. Maybe it's just me?
    I did love the Teen Vogue Handbook though, it had some pretty interesting stuff in it.
    Love your blow btw! :)

  9. I agree. Being able to translate your ideas to other people is important. But I think it's mainly important to just have a medium of doing so. Sketches are great, but some people are amazing at drawing things on the computer but cannot do a thing on paper. So it really depends. :)

  10. Sketching doesn't come easy for everyone but it is a good tip. Maybe even being able to write down in detail what your idea is would count...
