Question Hi Timothy:)
I'm 19yrs. old & my talents are in Fashion Design. But thing is, I don't wanna leave Louisiana, my hometown. But I also like computers . Please help me! I need to decide a career. Thanks:)
Answer Well... I don't know many fashion designers in the United States who don't live in New York City.... actually, I know of none. All the bigshots live there. Louisiana isn't exactly a fashion capital ;)
I don't know what to tell you- NYC is where you have to go to meet people, get connections, and start working- especially seeing you'll most likely have to work for another designer to get your ideas established and to be able to start a new line of your own...
