Best Answer

A fashion designer is someone who works with the fashion of the time and presents catwalk shows and adverts in magazines such as I-D and Vogue where as a costume designer designs for certain plays, dances, pantomimes, films, programmes etc. for the actors, singers, dancers etc but they don't follow fashion or try and set a certain trend. There clothes concepts are up to the director of the production (or whatever it may be) and the clothing has to suit the character and the style of the production. A fashion designer can be a costume designer but a costume designer can't be a fashion designer.

eg: an old fashioned play about a slave - the slave wears a thin dirty dress made of poor mans fabric and scruffy shoes. Or a modern play about New York life - the main character wears a suit most of the time and is styled very cleanly.

A fashion illustrator is someone who draws, photographs, or in some way reproduces fashions. A fashion designer is someone who comes up with new looks and pieces of clothing. Without a fashion designer there would be no fashion illustrators.
