Study fashion trends. While you don't need a fashion degree to design clothes, it helps to have a fundamental knowledge of art, creation, and the fashion business to get you started as a clothing designer. Take sewing or pattern-making classes if you don't know how to physically create garments, or take a drawing class if you're unfamiliar with sketching or computer-aided design. Even classes in fashion history can contribute to your design inspiration. Familiarize yourself with the latest fashion trends by studying current fashion shows and magazines.
