Yes. If you have enough time and money to start your own business and really dedicate yourself to said business, then you will be set. Anyone should be able to start just about any career if they are over the legal age for working.

Question

What can I wear at my school's Career Day if I want to become a fashion designer?

Community Answer

Wear something not too flashy, but not too conservative. Make sure that it is something that stands out, and also describes you as a person.

Question

Do I have to wear makeup?

Community Answer

Of course not. Some people do not wear any makeup at all. Without makeup, you can give more of a natural look that many people prefer more. Think of it this way. If you see somebody pretty with makeup and someone pretty without it, who do you admire more?

Question

On social media do I have to take pictures of myself right away, or can I start small with taking pictures of the clothing laid out?

Community Answer

Honestly, you can do whatever you want! My suggestion is if you want to do both, take a picture of the clothes laid out, then take a picture of you wearing them. It's all about what you want to do.
