What Education is Needed to get into Magazines / Publishing?

[Cicciolina]

You don't really need to study anything specific to be a Bookings Editor. Many get that job after being a fashion assistant/editorial assistant.

I think nowadays having a blog can be helpful, but I wouldn't say that to work in fashion magazines, you need a blog. The lines are blurred much more and with the likes of Susie Bubble working for Dazed, and Rumi at Fashiontoast etc blogging for Lucky Magazine has been a step forward in bringing the fashion blogging and fashion print media together, but it's still far way from being necessary to have a fashion blog. Even though those bloggers have done well for themselves now, I'm still not sure if this sort of integration will be sustained in the long run, maybe it will? Who knows

i think if you want to work in a fashion magazines, Art History would be the one that you need to take, i believe they look for art history graduate more to work in a fashion magazine, than the one that graduate frm fashion design. coz u see, the designers didnt do as much writings as the Art historian since we spend most of our time sewing the bloody garments.

Art history is definitely well regarded

Vera Wang studied Art History before working at Vogue; and of course now she's a successful designer
