Top 10 famous fashion designer

“Fashion is the art, designers are the gods. Models play the part of angels in the dark…” Fashion designers are somewhat more than people who create and designs clothes but also sew dreams of costume and symmetry of art. I used to think of them as nothing but people who love to oppose the law of customary and common – “…which one who dare to go against, that beauty is a trade and everyone is paid.”

As I put myself through such extremes research about them, I found out that I should go back on my words because apparently, they are interesting and somewhat I see what they really see. I actually rake and filter some of my choices for the best fashion designers and put them accordingly on a top 10 list.
