When I was much younger I studied an introduction to fashion design in college. I did enjoy that and got as far as making my own designed jacket and a pair of cute shorts after that.

Kinda tempted to pick up where I left off as having transitioned it opens up so much opportunity for experimentation. I absolutely love choosing clothes and looking through the options. It's kinda overwhelming but exciting. I think I could design some cute and interesting stuff.

There are some online courses that could take me back into it so going to explore those. I think a balance of contextual work, exploration and practical assignments would be great.

Anyone else dome any work designing and making their own clothes?

I feel like the intersection of dark and light. I have a dark soul residing in me but an intense draw to the powers of good. All around I feel the constant battle between darkness and light.

I have not, but I do have an eye for what works as far as clothing.
I think you should and share some of your designs you could be the next Christian Dior.

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

I haven't Charlotte but that sounds amazing. Maybe this could be your next keen interest/hobby to keep your mind engaged eh?

I can barely sew a button on personally, I admire anyone that can produce something from scratch. My mum and her friend used to make all their own outfits in the 60's. The pics of them when they were younger are awesome.

I agree that it is something you might be quite good at.

It isn't just the design, but the choice of fabric and such. With your flair for gender-bending fashions, you could hit on something that is a big hit.

I suspect a lot may include fur.
