Why Fashion?

Learn more about Amelia's work history

I am studying at Virginia Commonwealth University; my major is Fashion Merchandising, and I love it. I decided to do fashion merchandising because I always had a intrest for fashion. enjoyed shopping at luxury brands and wanted to understand the fashion world more. I plan on working in fashion when I’m older. Hoping to work in a corporate office of a luxury brand. I also learned a lot working in fashion retail such as J. Crew. I love learning about rollouts that come out every month and am thrilled to be one of the first people to see the new styles. I also learn by keeping up with emails that get sent and understanding more about our coworkers in corporate who make the styles and design the look in the store.
