Welcome Back, this weeks blog post is going to be different, i’m going to talk about a lot of cool jobs you can get in the fashion industry! I covered one of the jobs in a separate blog titled “Visual Merchandising” ! There are many other jobs you can get in the fashion industry, I’ve been applying to a lot of them now since i’ll be receiving my Bachelors degree in visual merchandising in a couple of weeks!

Retail Store Manager- This is a great way to get started in the fashion industry. By managing a store with shows leadership skills and lets you see the ins and outs of retail! A lot of the jobs i have been applying for so far have been management position, I think its a great place to start and grow from. A lot of Manager position calls for an outgoing, friendly and Team player! Without a degree it could take years to move up to a management role or you would of have had to already manage a store.

Professional /personal stylist- This job is very fun but can also be very stressful! This could be dressing multiple people or just one individual at a time! This could be done at a local store or they have celebrity stylist! I just finished watching a show on Netflix this week called styling Hollywood ! it was a really good show, it is reality based that covers the life of a celebrity stylist, which shows all the ins and out of his job.

Fashion Buyer- This is a fun job that requires a lot of traveling! A buyer goes to different show rooms and fashion shows to see current and future trends that they can buy for a retailer. This is also a job i looked into myself! It requires a lot of math and 6 months plans and also looking at past sales. A buyers biggest fear is for something to go on clearance, that means there predictions were not correct!

Creative director are responsible for the overall theme look and design of a store! They are responsible for the stores layout each season and comes up with trending colors and styles! This job goes hand and hand with the visual merchandiser!

All of these jobs are fun and exciting a lot of people think that fashion is just making and buying clothes when their are multiple jobs on the business side of fashion! Thanks for checking out this weeks blog and don’t forget to stay trendy chic with Dominique! comment, like and subscribe!
