Jyotshana, you do not need anything except dedication to learn further. I assume you're already into fashion industry/ institute. However, if you come across something you need to learn from outside, post it here and get directions. Also, if you want to know more about what other options are there in design here is an update. Design is a field that is age old & has been evolving every year like science. The world has changed a lot and a lot of new & wonderful careers in design have come up. Sometimes student Artists are too much enamoured by Fine Arts preventing them to look objectively at Design. They must read this http://bit

However, if you come across something you need to learn from outside, post it here and get directions. Also, if you want to know more about what other options are there in design here is an update.

Sometimes student Artists are too much enamoured by Fine Arts preventing them to look objectively at Design. They must read this http://bit.ly/SXc9GD. Again like science it pays to be at the cutting edge. For e.g. science students do better if they go for CS or IT since that are areas where development is taking place rapidly. Similarly in Design the cutting edge areas are UID/ UXD, 3D Printing, Immersive Technology, Augmented Reality, 3D Projection etc, besides of course Game Design & Animation. Of course at the top of the pile lies Concept Designing (usually reserved for writers and visionaries) - these people are required by Event Companies, Animation Studios, VFX Studios, & of course Game Studios. At this stage, you may want to understand the creative world & the careers it offers. Interiors, textile as well as Web Design rely on the same skills - your layout skills & color sense. Journalism also is at this level and relies on your language skills & knowledge of history and current affairs. A little higher perches Graphic Design, Fashion Design, jewellery design, Acting, & Fine Arts which rely on one of your artistic skills - sketching & imagination. At a similar level perches VFX as well as Motion Graphics which rely on one of your artistic skills - Cinematographic skills & imagination. Then come careers like Animation, Film Making, Game Design which rely on multiple talents like your authority over sketching, acting, direction, voice, sound, writing, storytelling & problem solving skills etc. Any extra skill can be used in this. So it turns out to be one of the most challenging as well as satisfying careers. Sure not recommended for the weak hearted. Do remember that digital design careers (e.g. web design, graphics, UI design, animation, vfx, multimedia) give better profits since they can be delivered anywhere in the world & hence may earn in dollars - resulting in better rewards for designers.If you like this answer you may select it as best answer or press like

Dear Jyotsna, you should join an Institute for fashion design and learn the basics. You can also find out from your faculty about the books etc & do research. I am sure your faculty will help you. The best is to google and check out the what are the strides & trends of the fashion Industry. You should go for fashion exhibitions so you get the feel of the Industry. You can also participate in fashion seminars where Industry experts give good talks where you get new insights into the Fashion world
