In this post I’ll give you four tips to make it in the fashion industry because you know, this business is so cool and glamour that everyone wants to work in it, so the competition is high. But here I’m to help you to make it.

We have launched our Membership program to help you further to start and build a career in Fashion. Join us and become a Girl With A Plan.

Let’s start

Become well informed of the industry 

Buy books, read posts and study to understand how the fashion industry works. I remember when I started looking for a job in fashion, I knew few things about this industry and how a fashion company worked. So it was difficult for me to realise what career path could be the right one for me. That’s why then I started Glam Observer, to help all the other girls who like me wants to work in fashion but don’t know how. Joining our Membership you’ll have access to exclusive content, which is an archive full of posts, templates and ebooks to understand the business of fashion and to find the perfect career that best fits your education and passions. 

Show you are the right one

Every brand is looking for a great assistant or intern. Just prepare a great CV and an intelligent cover letter.  The cover letter is what will make you stand out from the crowd, so make it really personal and relevant to the job you’re applying for. Don’t send the same cover letter to everyone.

It’s competitive but, don’t give up

Once that you have finally found what it’s the right path and you’re confident with this, don’t give up. The fashion industry is so competitive but don’t lose your vision. If you think that that is the right role for you don’t give up when the first people tell you no. Also, remind that another job which is related to yours can lead you to the one you want. Once that you’ll start working you’ll have a clearer vision, and you’ll get closer to the job you desire. 

Be professional and be ready to work hard

Fashion is a creative and glamour industry but it’s always business, and like every business, you need to work hard. People are looking for yes creative, but also intelligent people. Plus it’s a high-speed industry so you’ll need to work hard to keep up with it.
