As a follow-up question, does anyone have experience interning at one of the luxury goods stores in the Bay Area? I am interested in interning at any of these, but since none of them have corporate headquarters in the Bay Area, I'm wondering what opportunities (if any) would even be available at an actual store as opposed to a corporate office. Is it just sales associates and a manager who work at these stores? I'm interested in the business side fashion and not the design side, by the way.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

there are opportunities to intern only on weekends/part-time/freelance but noone ever advertises for those kind of positons. i would advise to you to network your way in to such a position. try talking directly to the person at whatever company who manages the interns. then maybe, if they like you they will come up with a special way for you to work there, such as on weekends or seldom.
