Is there a clear difference between designers and graphic designers?

What's the difference between fashion designers and graphic designers?

• Answer:

  Fashion designers attempt to design http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothes which are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. They must consider who is likely to wear a garment and the situations in which it will be worn. A graphic designer is a professional within the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_design and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_arts industry who assembles together images, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typography, or motion graphics to create a piece of design. A graphic designer creates the graphics primarily for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Published_media, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Print_media or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_media, such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brochure(sometimes) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advertising. They are also sometimes responsible for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typesetting, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illustration, user interfaces, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_design, or take a teaching position. A core responsibility of the designer's job is to present information in a way that is both accessible and memorable.
