How do you know exactly what causes the form not to be valid while processing form with model - django-models

Question

Hey Mentors and Teachers, we appreciate having you, please help a young one here in this industry having not much experience this is one of my common challenges since I am still trying new ways, here I am using a model to save a form and also model form without having to use the form in the template. I am sure using the model form directly would have solved it quickly but I want the ability to be able to style my form, especially each individual field,
the version being used in this is django 3.1
Help me know how to make this code work
class Order(models.Model):
STATUS = (
('New', 'New'),
('Accepted', 'Accepted'),
('Completed', 'Completed'),
('Cancelled', 'Cancelled'),
)
user = models.ForeignKey(Account, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True)
payment = models.ForeignKey(Payment, on_delete=models.SET_NULL, blank=True, null=True)
order_number = models.CharField(max_length=20)
first_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
last_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
phone = models.CharField(max_length=15)
email = models.EmailField(max_length=50)
address_line_1 = models.CharField(max_length=50)
address_line_2 = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True)
country = models.CharField(max_length=50)
state = models.CharField(max_length=50)
city = models.CharField(max_length=50)
order_note = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=True)
order_total = models.FloatField()
tax = models.FloatField()
status = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=STATUS, default='New')
ip = models.CharField(blank=True, max_length=20)
is_ordered = models.BooleanField(default=False)
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
updated_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True)
def full_name(self):
return f'{self.first_name}'
and here is a view that is am using:
def place_order(request, total=0, quantity=0,):
current_user = request.user
# If the cart count is less than or equal to 0, then redirect back to shop
cart_items = CartItem.objects.filter(user=current_user)
cart_count = cart_items.count()
if cart_count <= 0:
return redirect('store')
grand_total = 0
tax = 0
for cart_item in cart_items:
total += (cart_item.product.price * cart_item.quantity)
quantity += cart_item.quantity
tax = (2 * total)/100
grand_total = total + tax
if request.method == 'POST':
form = OrderForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
# Store all the billing information inside Order table
data = Order()
data.user = current_user
data.first_name = form.cleaned_data['first_name']
data.last_name = form.cleaned_data['last_name']
data.phone = form.cleaned_data['phone']

and here is what is in the template:

tax = (2 * total)/100
grand_total = total + tax
if request.method == 'POST':

if form.is_valid():

data = Order()
data.user = current_user
