I tend to think that when most people think of having a fashion career, they think of that girl blonde no idea that interviews for the position of assistant to Carrie in the first “Sex and the City” movie. Anyone who has seen the scene where she says, “I would like a career in fashion,” immediately feels ashamed of his – because without even a hint of character development, it becomes clear that the only line this girl knows the industry is how much your credit limit can have it at Henri Bendel.
The truth is that fashionable people are the nerds of the highest order. We devour fashion magazines of the way our friends atGeekosystem devour comics derivatives, and the track study shows the way the boys dissect SportsGrid replays. We believe that industry and the forces behind it are the most interesting things in the world, and have no intention of apologizing for it, thank you very much.
However, here in Styleite surprising that a small group of people who came to this business we love from different angles, all finished in the same office, patrolling the Internet for breaking news. And that’s how we found this article Fashionista, detailing how to get a job in fashion.
You’ll forgive me for this but shifted beyond the information on jobs in marketing and marketing and went to the end of the post, which talks about fashion journalism. I found a bit surprising that a fashion blog was low on the details of writing for a fashion blog, but maybe that’s because the editors and writers who thought that the information seemed a little too obvious. However, I think it’s important that people know what to expect when you head out in search of work in the field.
Because what it means to be a fashion journalist is different for individual fashion journalists. Some people use it as a way to get more access to people who are fans of, others are just good writing about fashion and I can not think of any other profession that would make them happier. My case is a bit different.
My short-lived career in fashion journalism has led me to interview store owners in my college town to chat with senior vice presidents of the major (and minor) brands. I have from point A to point B through the hard work on student publications, internships, networking and persistence hard and cold when applying different concerts I’ve been lucky enough to land.
And the reason is that I did because I wanted to understand the industry from all angles. Before coming to Styleite, my writing focused on the business of fashion, and how the people who make and sell clothes to see and serve their customers. Now I’m here, I’m focused on how consumers view the world of fashion range – from how topreserve most beloved clothes how to bring the latest trends. I’ve even written about how to date someone who loves fashion.
Hopefully I can learn to convey what a few people who want to learn more about the industry, too. For me, it’s all about learning everything I can and dissemination of knowledge, and I think it’s an important service. Because fashion journalists dedicated understand things like why the prices of clothing are increasing, and we know that as consumers of fashion, we have a certain level of power over the people who create products to buy . I just think it’s funny.
I do not know where I’m going as a fashion journalist, but I know that I love what I do and I am happy to stand as an example that hard work can really get somewhere. And at the end of the day, that’s what working in fashion is reduced to: to love what you do.
