Communication skills. Any top fashion designer needs good communication skills to develop their brand. Throughout your career, you may have the opportunity to be a part of a design team or lead one of your own. When working with teams, bring your research and ideas to the table instead of waiting for direction. Listening is a large part of collaborating effectively. You aren't building a collection alone. You have to hear what your teammates are saying in order to provide feedback and push your designs to evolve.
