Most fashion bloggers have the chance to meet the other faces behind the blogs, & fashion lovers can meet the designers models & editors they've only dreamed of.If you're just starting out making a name for yourself in this industry & are being home schooled in fashion, which isn't accompanied by a list of must reads for the semester. You may feel a little overwhelmed at a table full of seem to know it all. The best advice I can give is advice that has worked for me. READ READ READ. Honey read everything in & about your field, listen to interviews, & observe.Think of you tube as your key to Fashion Week Paris, front row.The point is arm yourself with as much knowledge as you can absorb.What do you think the biggest difference between Euro & American designers, which of the two are your favorite & why? Yes be ready to back it up, & think outside the box! Don't just think Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Gucci, these designers are all great but give more. Give me Isabel Marant, Cristobal Balenciaga, Madame Gres, Rick Owens, and Charles James.
