What is an original design?

“Originality is a talent of creativity which evolves from an idea to a behavior, then to a product. It is also a quality of the idea that results in innovation and of the product, which is its embodiment.”

“If the original idea, which exists in creative thought and originates from the cooperation of similar or opposite wavelengths, or from their superimposition in a synthesis to generate a new idea, is a useful one and develops in the process in which the product comes into being, then it will emerge as an innovation.”

Hence, original design ideas are necessary for innovation which in turn is the basic requirement to progress in the field of Fashion.
