I am not going to reveal my actual age but I really want to become a fashion designer when I am 13! I have a friend and her dad works for gap and I submitted some of my designs to him and he said I have to be 12 and older! Are there any other places I where I can become a fashion designer?

P.S.
I am really good at putting together outfits! I have tons of sketches of outfits that I design!
And my friends and family love my designs!! Although I don’t stich or make my own clothes I love sketching designs!

    umm well you cant exactly do much, you can enter design contests, go to stores adn design areas to show them your designs, but you kind of need to be a little older

    You are much too vulnerable until you are 18 and I reccommend waiting until then. Legally you have hardly any rights and someone could easily make a huge profit off of your naivety, and leave you with a small portion.

    if your dad is Ralph Lauren and you mom is Coco Chanel of course you can!

    seriously though, here’s a website:

    P.S. a fashion designer is considered a job.. child labor laws make it illegal for 13-year-olds to have jobs… sorry.
