FashionSchoolReview.com can help aspiring fashion design students choose a school that will help them learn about fashion trends, textiles, ornamentation and production. The FashionSchoolReview.com article says that most fashion design schools offer costume design classes that focus on the vocabulary and history of costume design. Students enrolled in costume design courses or degree programs will also learn about art, architecture, cinema, color theory and textiles.

Becoming an Academy Award Nominee for costume design requires years of hard work and a dedication to researching history and fashion to learn how to design the correct clothing for characters. "The costume designer can add a lot to a film by creating costumes that express the character that wears them and designing wardrobes that add to the feel of a movie. This can best be done by blending the costumes into the film so that the viewer hardly notices them. "Distracting costumes hardly serve the art of storytelling," writes Gerard Kennedy in his Tech Support column for InContention.com.
