You are enduringly inspired with so many new designs racing straight through your mind, so many you can't seem to get them all down quick adequate at the pace they arrive. You enduringly dream of the day your fashions will be on the fashion runway with the lights beaming brightly overhead, the cameras flashing anywhere and the audience being wholly mesmerized by your anticipated designs.

It's this ever present dream of being a prosperous fashion designer that has you work day and night on your designs in most cases for many years without pay and working a job to pay the pills which is brutal torture, when all you can think about is living and working in fashion.
Famous fashion designers come from all walks of life there is no one principles to supervene that will have you come to be the next illustrious fashion designer. Some have graduated from elite fashion schools and some have never attended fashion school. Some have undertaken a fashion internship with a fashion house and others have made their own designs in their basement. The only elements all these fashion designers have in base is they had an intense passion for fashion, were able to institute fashions extremely sought after and connected with someone who gave them the opportunity to break into the fashion industry. It is valuable in becoming a prosperous fashion designer you get you and your designs out there as much as possible, as how will anything know about your fashions if they can't see them?
In getting your fashions out there here are a few things you can do:
1. We are not usually good at everything some of us are great at designing clothes but lack the sewing and pattern development skills. It is here you can partner with someone who shares your passion for fashion and has the skills you lack. It is in the bringing together of distinct skills you can generate a real stock that can be showcased.
2. In having a fashion line of 14 outfits you can apply to your local fashion week. In the Usa: New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco all have fashion weeks. These fashion weeks attract many editors, journalists and local socialites who will see your fashions and potentially give you the exposure you need to get known.
3. Many city night clubs hold fashion shows, find out what night clubs hold fashion shows and caress them as to how you can be apart of an up and advent show.
4. Locate fashion boutiques that cater to the fashions you design, first make a trip to the market to look around, if you can see your clothes fitting in well with the store, find out who the owner is and ask if they would be willing to have some of your fashions offered for sale in their store. You will be amazed at how many store owners are willing to work with you. I walked around San Francisco in the Nob Hill district and had my fashions settled after visiting and discussing my stock with four boutiques. In having your fashions displayed you will receive valuable insights as to whether or not your designs are in query and if you need to change your designs to increase sales. It will also give you free exposure to the public. When your fashions do sell you can present this to investors who are more than willing to invest in your line, when you prove the existence of a strong query for your fashions.
