To succeed with a tailoring career, you would need to have two attributes which I consider very vital. One is creativity. It takes creativity to imagine a design and create it in reality. It takes creativity to see a design for the first time and reproduce it.

Another attribute that is very necessary for a fashion designer is intuition. The ability to discern without a fixed formula what could be done. There are designs that you handle and you get to a point where it is like all logical ideas don't work. You have to infer and find what to do that would work.
