Week 1 EOC: My Voice

Fashion is a form of art in which an individual can express themselves without actually touching pen to paper or paint to canvas. I believe it is an expression of one’s true self, their personal style, and bold creativity. What you choose to dress like on that day can make you feel sexy, confident, or just chill. My idea of fashion is not necessarily subscribing to the season’ latest and greatest, but whatever makes you feel good. Sometimes it is you that sets the trend. One of my favorite things to do is people watch, I find that the first thing I look at is what a person is wearing, their shoes, and even how they styled their hair.  As a fashion buyer it is important to follow current fashion designers and understand market trends. However, understanding and being able to relate to the consumer is an even more vital part of the industry. Looking to them for inspiration and guidance is what fuels and drives a store or company to be successful. Upon graduation I hope to take the knowledge I have gained and my overall experience to establish a career with a high end fashion company. It is my desire to not only empower myself, but those around me and ultimately make a personalized impact on the evolving world of fashion.
