Sweet lucious asked:


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?

      This business it tough and you have to really love it as well as be in it for the long haul. You have to start as an Asst first, you need to know the business, b/c trust me, what ever you have heard is not nearly what you will be doing. Number 1 thing is to be patient, designer jobs are competitive especially in the two big cites of NY and LA ( dont know where you are located)…for slower pace, ATL, Dallas and believe it or not PHilidelphia and Ohio are also places for designers… a little off the beaten path but alot of big mass market names such as Limited, Charming shoppes, and Free people and ANthropologie have there design offices there… Also , Dont BURN YOUR BRIDGES, the industry is big in revenue but small in the amount of people who run it, so you never know who you are talking to , who might know someone else, who knows someone else……Be persistant and always strive to better your self and design ( not every bad critisism is a personal attack…use it to make yourself a better designer) ….GOOD LUCK…Hard work will pay off, but it will not come instantly, you have to put in your dues
