Fashion Designers usually specialise in a particular field such as menswear, eveningwear, daywear, or sportswear. After designing a particular line of clothing, the fashion Designer supervises the creation of the first garment. He or she may still fine-tune the design at this stage. Once the design has been finalised the garment is ready to be mass-produced in clothing factories. Some Fashion designers specialise in the design of clothing for individual people or exclusive boutiques.
