    Fashion designing is actually designing the clothes. Fashion merchandising is the business side.

    Noun 1.
    Fashion designer - someone who designs clothing
    Clothes designer, couturier, designer

    -----
    Mer·chan·dis·ing also mer·chan·diz·ing (mûrchn-dzng)
    n.
    The promotion of merchandise sales, as by coordinating production and marketing and developing advertising, display, and sales strategies.

    --------------------------------------------
    Most merchandisers will know something about fashion, but a designer need not know anything about merchandising if he/she has a manager to look after the business side.

    Currently most who are in the fashion business will know a lot about merchandising too due to the high competition in this field.
