There are just people who were born with an inclination to art and fashion, and at the opposite end of the spectrum, you'll find me.
I am a firm supporter of art. I think that a world without art is extremely lame. But a world without empirical analysis is asking for chaos.
The difference between science and art is that science is mostly objective, art is mostly subjective. If i were to design an article of clothing somewhere in the world, at least one person will be complementing me, and at least one person will be thinking about throwing it out in the trash.
Fashion design is both an art and science, but mostly art. Designing clothes involves a lot of creativity, artistry and some knowledge in anatomy and the science of textiles. But we can always neglect the hard science portion and go for common sense. You can always hire someone to develop textiles for you, or tell you which fabric best suits your design. there are consultants for that. but the general aesthetics of the line should come from the designer. the image and the type of products must come from the creator of the products. this is why a fashion designer should know a thingnor two about branding, management and product development. even without the hard sciences, fashion design involves several branches. that's a lot of behind the scenes work for something that can be classified as luxury.
