Class Experience

Students will begin the class by introducing themselves, what drew them to fashion and what their main focus or passion is within the Fashion Industry. Though I will teach an entire overview, it will help me to assess and tailor more specific information around their ideal roles & interests of choice.  

We will first go over the main “divisions” of the Fashion industry, and their relevant Positions & Roles (through a mix of discussion(s), and a Powerpoint presentation, etc.) —  

-Fashion Magazines = Creative Directors, Editors, Journalists, Copywriters, Stylists, Photographers, Graphic Designers, Set Design, Bookers, Production Staff 

-Fashion & Design “Houses” = Designers, Illustrators, Seamstresses, Ateliers, Tailors, 

-Fashion Marketing & Public Relation Firm(s) = P.R. Executives, Press & Showroom Managers, Social Media Managers

-Retail = Visual & General Merchandising, Buying, In-House “Stylists,” Studio Services, Sales, Corporate/Administrative 

-Film/Music = Costume Design, Wardrobe & Styling, Talent Handler

-Freelance = Hair and Make-Up Artists, Creative Consultant(s), Style & Trend Forecasting, etc. 

-Modeling Agencies = Department Heads, Agents

We’ll explore the meeting point of what you LOVE to do, what you’re GREAT at doing - and where those happen to intersect! Let’s find out, together!

Learning Goals

After our initial introduction and breakdown in the 1st class, students will then choose 2-3 positions that seem of interest to them during our 2nd class, and we will delve in and learn more specific, detailed information that I will tailor for each student. From - 

-What each role is titled, what each position entails, and what upward escalation/trajectory in each role looks like; starting salary, etc.

-Education requirements - what classes students can begin to take, even in middle/high school, that will aid in their chosen profession; all the way up to College, MFA and Certification programs; Internships, etc. 

-Top companies in each respected field of choice (Top Magazines, Design Houses, Agencies, Studios, etc.) 

-Best “Market” (location) in each respected field of choice

    Profile
    Teacher expertise and credentials
    I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts from The New School (University) in New York, New York; with a double major in Psychology & The Arts and with a minor in Writing. I also happened to take several Fashion courses at Parsons School of Design. 
    
    Prior to university, I signed with my 1st  Modeling Agency in NYC at 17 (and have been represented in Europe & Africa as well), and have worked with clients such as - Puma, Tommy Hilfiger, Hood by Air, Telfar, Cassette Playa & Netflix; and featured in publications such as Dazed&Confused, i-D, Wonderland, VFiles, Out, Hypebeast, Huffington Post and more. 
    
    I took that experience and parlayed it into working a myriad of "behind the scenes" roles in Fashion & Entertainment - as a Stylist and Fashion & Editorial Associate for GQ, WWD, Glamour, and Interview Magazine(s); to working in Production at Warner Bros. Studios; to freelancing in Marketing/Public Relations & Creative Consulting for multiple brands & companies - steadily working in NYC, L.A. & Europe over the last decade!
