The first step is to start taking some art classes to improve your drawing skills!. You have a good first step here, and you sound very excited about the idea, and that's great!. Then you need to enroll into an art college!. The Art Institute is a good one!. Then you can get your degree in Fashion Design!. The college should set you on the right path to where you need to be!. You'll have to start from the bottom and work your way up unless you have connections with the fashion industry, which most of us real world people don't!. GOOD LUCK!Www@QuestionHome@Com
