Yes, of course. One must finally choose the field that fascinates us. It is irrespective of what we studied due to either parental or peer pressure. Even at this stage, when you are already a civil engineer, there is absolutely nothing that should prevent you from pursuing fashion design as new aim if that is gripping your fancy.

You can apply for fashion design. You can do your masters in design and take up fashion design. This will help you not only learn about the technical aspect of fashion design but help you build up a resume and contacts in the industry. You can also do internships and shadow other designers to learn valuable insights.
