Most fashion designing courses adopt a holistic approach when                       

designing the syllabus to introduce students to all the aspects of

designing and creating garments and accessories. The subjects

covered include a basic introduction to fashion designing,

the skills that are required and the possible career paths available to prospective fashion designers. They also include diverse topics such as the history of fashion designing, understanding fashion, trends in fashion designing, equipment used for garment and accessory production, fabrics and raw materials, pattern making, sewing, marketing, etc.
