Birth defects are defined as abnormalities of structure, function, or body metabolism that are present at birth. Major birth defects are abnormalities that lead to developmental or physical disabilities or require medical or surgical treatment. There are more than 4,000 different known birth defects, ranging from minor to serious, and although many can be treated or cured, they're the leading cause of death in the first year of life.

No, one does not necessarily need a degree to get a fashion stylist job, although a degree is helpful and can make your resume much more attractive to potential employers. For many looking into fashion styling, experience with the big fashion houses is important. Also, "who you know" would be important in this industry.
