The design work and this final illustration was a personal project simply to test my own diversity as a designer. The design signature of this work is my own, but i was also inspired by famous swimwear designer Melissa Odabash.

Hi Yavanna,
Thanks for taking an interest in my work. I have heard of Pistol Panties before but have never got around to looking. I might just do that now!
If you really want to go into fashion design then passion, good taste and contacts are the most important things to have. I must admit that unless you have some very rich and helpful contacts and amazing natural talent then it will be difficult to get into this industry without a fashion degree. Any employers i know wouldn’t really consider hiring someone for a design role without it. Although many high fashion designers will happily take on aspiring designers as interns if you are willing to work for nothing and you still have enough motivation to prove yourself. Just write off and send them some sketches you’ve done.
Good luck. Hope this helps.
Lauren
