well i'm even younger than most of you, i'm 14! i've emailed nearly every magazine i know but all of them said you had to be 18. i even tried magazines aimed at my age and my local newspaper but even they wouldn't take me on. i know i'm young and that's why they wont let me come. if they looked past my age, they'd see that i'd be just as good (well i hope) as a 16/17 year old. i am quite mature for my age, i am very determined and enthusiastic. I used to run my own magazine and give it to my friends. I now have a fashion blog. i know a lot more about fashion than most girls my age who just say they do. next year i get to do two weeks work experience with my school. i want to do something fashion-related, but nobody will take me on because i'm young! what am i supposed to do?
well, retail doesn't really help that much because mostly you are doing customer service right? what other ideas do you guys have about the fashion club thing becuase I really want one, it'll build experience and what not, but have no idea. i don't know if people will be that commited to it. any ideas?
Okay, let's attempt to bring this thread back to life here. Right, so I'm sixteen, and I have absoutley no desire to do anything with my life other than work in the fashion industry. I have applied for alot of internships but that just doesn't happen for me, I take classes at FIT on sundays and saturdays as part of their highschoolers program but still I find myself totally screwed as to my future career. Should I go to a regular collage? Should I spend my time trying to get into an Ivy League school, Should I go to FIT? Should I go to RISD, Should I go to a college in the city and just get a bunch of internships and attempt to work my way up, should I do anything now to try to improve my odds? I really wish I could just skip high school....
