[lmelanie]

I am an aspiring fashion photographer and I would love to get involved if possible! I just need exposure...

Let me know what I can do to help!

 

[Dustcakeboy]

Oh I'd definitely be interested in writing for you!

I haven't got any official experience but I'm quite good at English and have done well in exams up to now. I also have a relatively good knowledge of designers etc.

I've just vowed, rather selflessly, to help my sister find a job/internship in Sydney, Australia...any info would be appreciated! She's just graduated with a degree in Fashion Design.

You really just have to put yourself out there. Call EVERYWHERE you think you would be interested in working at, tell them your situation, and hope that someone is looking for a new intern/employee.

Arigato!

Hello All,
I am a fashion major in nyc. I stil have two years left but I am taking a light load, all courses after 5pm. I am looking for something paid in the fashion industry. I have a lot of web experience, fashion forecasting, and e commerce. I have looked on craigslist, but am wondering where else to look? There are not many things in fashion on craigslist.

Hey guys!


Listen... If you are looking or if you know of anyone that is LOOKING for a design opportunity, please please please send them my way. I am currently heading up the handbag division for my company, we have 2 other designers (One specializes in backpacks, one specializes in Baby accessories)... they are in dire need for help. The person must have Illustrator experience, must know how to lay out a spec, must have a good taste level .
The atmosphere at this company is VERY COOL. We know how to have fun at work while getting stuff done. We cover almost every imaginable accessory... we have over 26 categories here ranging from backpacks, to handbags, baby, hair, jewelry, etc etc.

We are a licensing company and our licenses range anywhere from Phat Farm and Baby Phat to projects ranging from Heatherette to Walmart, Smurfs Couture(Yes, smurfs couture), etc etc. We get lots of random projects, so versatility is a must! The typical process of licensing work is required ... meaning approvals, meetings with the licensor, etc.

Please get back to me if you are interested, or if you know of anyone else!

Thanks so much

Is it too early to apply for summer internships at magazines and other fashion internship places?

I would say yes. Most places are still getting their Fall people in order, and their next concern would be Spring. So I would wait until at least February before you get the resume out.

 

[DJCNOR]

Hi,

This is probably the wrong place to post this, but this is where folks who might have someone to suggest would be looking. I got an email from a US recruiter looking for a designer of bed, bath, and window fashions, who can present and travel with the owner, saying salary is not an issue if the background is right. Since I'm in the UK now, I'm out of touch with appropriate folks. So, fellow textile designers, if you are or if you know such a person, let me know.
