Fashion designing

Q: Is it allowed for girls to learn fashion designing in Islamic fashion?

A: There is no such a thing like learning Islamic fashion designing. Islam highly promotes simplicity, modesty, and shame. Fashion and designing breaks the fabric of Islamic teaching and culture, for there is exposure and immodesty in this and waste of time and wealth, apart from the ostentation and show. It is not only against Islamic culture but against Islamic teaching as well.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
