could you help me please… i need this now.:)
how fashion designers contribute to economy or the society. why should i choose it as my economic ambition? because i really want to be a fashion designer but my teacher told me why? and how can a fashion designer contribute to economy?
"Contribute to society" suggests that it should be some sort of charity work, that there is something wrong with wanting to make money from your artistic abilities.
But how much you contribute to an economy is judged by how much people want to pay you to do what you do, regardless of the reason you do it. Designers who make a lot of money do so because they sell a lot of clothing, which must mean that lots of people want to pay them for clothes with their designs.
From an economic point of view, the value of your art is measured by how much you get someone else to pay for it. Why people pay some artists a lot of money is a separate question.
