Fashion communication is a domain which involves itself with the communication of fashion and lifestyle. This can take various forms such as communication design, branding for a fashion label, public relations, fashion journalism, advertisement, styling or visual merchandising and art direction. Fashion is not only about the design and making of clothing and accessories; it supports an ecosystem of other collaborative areas of working which make the practice of fashion design possible. A field that is relatively new in India and finding its footing, fashion communication in India supports the working of the fashion and lifestyle business.
