PLZ ANSWER QUICK. WILL GIVE BRAILNLY

Question: Do you really need to know how to sew to be a designer?
Answer: I've heard stories of people who create successful lines of apparel with just a great idea. At the very, very least, to be a success as a fashion designer, one needs to know how clothes are constructed and sewn. One doesn't necessarily have to experience it firsthand, but it most certainly helps. Without technical experience, a designer is solely reliant upon in-house sample hands or a production factory abroad to implement the concepts. When one has firsthand experience, then one can say to the sample hand or factory, "What do you mean you don't know how to do X? Let me show you."

According to the passage above why is it important to learn how to sew if you want to be a fashion designer?

It is important/beneficial to know to sew if you want to become a fashion designer because as it states above if you know how to sew you have an upper hand in the fashion design industry as when designing clothing/ handbags etc. You can produce a small sample yourself that’s something along the lines of your vision to then show other people/ designers your ideas and have them help you and work along with you to make mass production and see your visions come to life.
