002: Why Should We Rethink the Title "Fashion Designer"?
Episode description
Through the experience of seeing a fellow designer shift their entire life course away from the industry as a whole, we explore where this title can go right for people in the industry and where it can go wrong. In this episode we explore the following concepts: Fashion as an Industry, Legitimization of Fashion as an Art Form, Art Vs. Design, and close with a personal story as to why these questions matter.
