Hey all,

I'm fighting with the decision of starting my own line of women's clothing. I just need a little advice. I'm currently in school obtaining a degree in nursing (that's my back-up if fashion designing doesn't work for me), but I don't have the formal training to become a fashion designer, but I do have a God given talent of drawing, it amazes me sometimes how well I can draw and I've never been taught how to draw by anyone. My question is it feasible for me to enter this industry without being formally trained? I have the business knowledge to know how to run the business, but I don't have the training in the aspect of someone teaching how to draw or learn fabrics, etc; I've learned that on my own and through experience. What do you think?

Thanks
