If you have not learned sewing till time, then for fashion designer work this is the must and need to learn this skill. In your career you may have to sew difficult fabric. You may have difficult situation also.

This is the skill need more attention. For successful fashion designer, this skill doesn't come very easily. Some people learn it very easily and sound like by born having this skill.

Your next move is, you should understand heart of the fabric. You should get in depth knowledge of particular fabric. My suggestion is note down the characteristics of fabric like how it move, how it breathe, how react under different weather, different conditions, how works come under different detergents and much more points.

Not only this, you should know the availability of that fabric. Get details from where the source material come from. If need to arrange from other cities, countries, what will be the cost? In short, in depth, get the details of availability, costing, fabric behavior, before working on it.

Learn from existing designers, not just who they are, but their backgrounds, their signature style, the learning that they undertook, where they studied. Knowing this will help you to be a better designer yourself, as you can borrow and build on their ideas.

Learn how to create storyboards and product ranges. Be good at researching trends and finding inspiration from social media, comparative shopping and trade shows.

Start developing these skills at a young age. Be prepared to devote hours of time to perfecting your craft. A little bit everyday will make you gain a deep understanding of fashion on the long run if you are planning a career. Trying to do all at once might get you discouraged.
