I’m only in 6th grade, but I have a knack for fashion. I’ve always wanted to be a fashion designer or model, and now’s the time to make my dream come true. Please tell everything you know.
If some people think my age is too young, go ahead and tell me, but this is my dream and has been for as long as I can remember.
I can’t get a degree since I am too young for one. So, please don’t answer with “Get a degree.”
Everyone tells me I’m pretty enough to be a model and they tell me I should model.

LIke before people used to have differnet kind of clothes,hairstyles and also personalities. But as fashion changes peoples personality changes also, how long does it normally take for fashion to change for example like 5 years back there wasnt that many girls/boys that used gel now everywhere you see there is bound to be gel used in hair.
So how long really will it take for fashion to change?

Thanks.

I know is very hard to get your talents noticed in this business since there is soo much competition out there. I know that there is an assistant as a second choice which is also good. I’m just wondering if I don’t make it as a top fashion designer or assistant is there another good job in this career run? If there is what would it be and what is the average pay for it?

What is the definition of fashion? Even though the term ‘fashion’ does apply to a huge number of fields like architecture, interior design, music, dance, politics, media, various forms of speech and slang, even technology, the main use of this term today is to describe fashion outfits.

The main purpose of clothing according to the latest fashion trends is to express our beliefs. We find refuge in fashion outfits to express ourselves, even though it may not concur with all fashion trends at the time. All these things happen within a culture, but the situation often occurs when fashion trends change a lot faster than the culture itself.

Common terms related to these aspects are ‘fashionable’ and ‘unfashionable’. They depict whether fashion outfits worn by various people are according to the popular mode of expression at a given time. When someone states that something is ‘in fashion’ we immediately think about something beautiful, glamorous, and stylish all comprised in one package.

The roots of fashion go back to the 8th century. Back then, a musician from Baghdad traveled to Spain and was the first one to introduce fashion outfits to the world. He developed specific lines of clothing according to daily timing as well as seasons.

His fashion outfits consisted of dark colored items made of warm cotton or wool for the winter. The summer outfits were very light and colorful garments, made of silk, cotton, and flax. Apart from seasonal clothing items, he also developed certain outfits that could be worn according to specific times in the day, like morning, afternoon and evening.

The changes in fashion occur very often, more rapidly than in any other field. Some people believe that fashion is one of the negative aspects of capitalism, since it encourages people to buy some things that are not entirely necessary. On the other hand, others, young people in particular, enjoy the fact that there is always something new and interesting that they can try.

Even though the changes in fashion occur at an alarming rate, it is also common for a fashion style that has been outdated for a long time to come back in fashion and stay like this for some time. This cycle takes place every twenty or thirty years. The latest fashion trend that has arisen from the dead and is now on the streets of our cities is the 80’s fashion.

The outfits that are in style at a given time are often following the modes of expressions of someone that we look up to, and the 80’s fashion trends are based on the same principles. In this direction, movie stars and music celebrities had a trend of their own. For example Michael Jackson, Madonna, Run DMC, Don Johnson and many others popularized a lot of 80’s fashion outfits.

In the beginning of the 21st century, the outfits which are now in style are looking in the past for inspiration. The 80’s fashion trends are attempting to make a strong come back and so far they are on the right path. Designer shoes and rock band T-shirts are just some of the favorites among men, while the women wear mini-skirts and thick belts and lots of other things to express themselves as they did back in the 80s.

Working in the fashion industry:

When you work in the fashion industry you get golden invites to a lot of exclusive events with all the stars and usually get to party fabulous with all the great drinks and bubbly champagne because a party is not a party without a specialty drink. In the fashion industry, they have the head of marketing and PR and they usually develop friendships with flower shops, major magazine companies, boutiques, salons, clothing stores and everything and every place, etc.

The fashion industry deals with models, make-up, fashion and style. They have editors and editors-in-chief just to make sure that everything is where it’s supposed to be which is supposed to be a personification of over the top glamour. They also have assistants and other workers that make-up guest lists for events and have event designers, and designers of all kinds and all stars.

Note: When working in the fashion industry, there are no tears in fashion, and gum chewing is definitely unacceptable which is considered to be very unprofessional and you must always keep yourself groomed at all times and really pay close attention to your appearance.

Fashion week: Fashion week always kicks into high gear.

However, there are many benefits while working in the fashion industry, especially if you work for a major magazine company, you get a lot of free stuff that designers send over to the company and goodie bags, and you get to score a lot of fun stuff and tickets to get into events and backstage passes, you even get a press pass for every beauty event there is in order for you to interview the models and the models on the come up just so you can write a piece and an article for your job and including for fashion week and if you’re a fashion intern, you get to live in one of those fabulous loft apartments depending on the location you came from or your job location.

Know this: When you’re in the fashion industry, you end up having a clear understanding of how you can add fashion into your life. I myself is a person who really lives for fashion and style and I call myself a true fashionista and knowing what and what not to wear just like the show on TLC.

In those fashion jobs, they usually have the wardrobe closet with all of those fashion samples that you can test out and you get to go backstage to talk to the models because in fashion, you must always work hard by trying no to mess up, but at the same time, be able to take constructive criticism without any fuss or tears because know one wants to have a cry baby on staff.

Fashion week: When fashion week looms in, fashion week is almost like looking into a crystal ball.

When first getting a job in fashion: The first day on the job is kind of an intense time to be late, so you must always keep on with communication at all times whether you’ll be late or not which shows responsibility on your behalf and be happy with the work and the position that you get because it’s considered a great opportunity with benefits that are great, no girl could possibly say no.

Now a fashion assistant does all the shopping and picks up the outfits and accessories for the necessary shoots and the beauty snoops are the ones who do the on the fly interviews, checks out what’s new on the market and acting as an insider without anyone else really knowing about them, they usually create a story that is writeable with enough information that their bosses can read and always have to put the clothes neatly in the bag after picking up the outfits and accessories and if you’re an intern on an internship in the fashion industry, it’s all about learning to become the best.

Now there’s a lot of competition in the fashion industry because it’s really tough and you need to be more thick skinned than what you really are. One of the most important things in the fashion industry is to have a party weeks before fashion week and need to make sure they have enough stars and celebrities at their parties for the purpose of the press.

And last, but not least, when working in the fashion industry, you must be capable of handling a job and meeting deadlines by completing every job successfully with a lot of confidence within yourself because at the end of the day or week, you’ll be rewarded for all of your hard work with all of those fabulous items and goodies which is the best.

While I have many other interests in life (particularly literature, social sciences, and astrophysics), I live, breath and eat fashion.
Fashion is something I would consider being involved with for my whole life, but I don’t know where I should start.
In fashion, other than being a model or designer (adore that idea, but must learn to sew first), what are the different careers?
