FASHION BUYING AND SOURCING

I am a 22 years old International Fashion Business student with a background in Fashion Design.

Coming from a mixed heritage background and being brought up in London, has brought me many enriching experiences and much knowledge, particularly within fashion and the industry which I apply both to my work and to my day to day life.

Knowing that I was a creative from very young age has definitely helped to shape my career from an early stage in life, I have used this both within my hobbies which are dance and gymnastics and my career aspiration which is to work within the fashion industry.

I am hardworking, motivated and will always do my upmost best to create something beautiful.

MLAUNCHING A SUSTAINABLE FASHION BRANDI have had various roles within the retail sector from a young age, where I gained an insight into the fashion industry. This experience encouraged me to advance my future career within the industry. Continuing study with the international fashion business course has allowed me to develop and demonstrate both my creativity and my academic ability. My favourite part of the course has been being able to merge both the creative elements of fashion and the theoretical. I have a strong interest in sustainable and ethical fashion and aim to launch my own clothing brand. Working for myself has become a long -term goal of mine, which I am intent on achieving. I feel that owning my own company, I would be able to create a brand which aligns with my interests in sustainability, while also being able to have creative freedom. I enjoy traveling and experiencing new cultures, which I hope to incorporate into my future career. In my spare time I also enjoy playing guitar and going to live music events.

DIGITAL MARKETING

I consider myself a friendly and articulate individual, who enjoys working both as an individual and within a team structure. This I have proven during my time studying at NTU where I have collaborated with my class associates on creative projects and presentations. I am an incredibly organised and hard working person, this I have demonstrated through my ability to maintain both studies and my part-time job in retail, whilst ensuring that I produce my best work to achieve the best possible grade. Having a career in Digital Marketing has been an aspiration of mine for some time. I feel having the ability to bring ideas to life rewarding, using my valuable Computer Aided Design skills, which I have gained during my FDA studies and my time here on International Fashion Business. From my background in Fashion Design and my knowledge in Fashion business, I have developed transferable key skills that I feel are valuable and would benefit the fashion industry.

SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETER/ EXPERIENTIAL MARKETER, PR AND EVENTS

I previously studied Textile Design during my time at Nottingham Trent University, specialising in embroidery which taught me versatile hands on skills and design work however, I felt that I needed to strengthen my knowledge with the business aspect of the creative industry. Textile Design also gave me skills including dealing with intricate tasks and patience when working with a project which were transferable to International Fashion Business. During the past year I have taken a major interest into the marketing aspect of the course, especially experiential marketing.

I am handy with programmes such as Adobe Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop frequently teaching myself new skills to keep my knowledge topped up. I enjoy meeting new people and working in teams to gain knowledge and perform to my best ability.

In my spare time I enjoy researching contemporary trends and observe streetstyle that is surrounding me. Attending music events and pop up galleries helps me with this and allows me to network with other creatives within the industry. Magazines such as Wonderland and Dazed give me aesthetic inspirations and push me to create diverse layouts for my own work. I enjoy socialising and can make a cracking cup of tea!

MARKETING DIRECTORI have always been passionate about fashion and would highly value the opportunity to work in marketing within the industry. I have realised that the role of marketing is undoubtedly the career I want to pursue. My interest in marketing first arose during my first year of university, during the marketing module I had to complete. During my second year at university I undertook a marketing and PR internship with a local independent brand Studio LBW. I oversaw scheduling, distributing and analysing social media content, finding new bloggers and influences to collaborate with and writing blog posts for the online store. Marketing is the career I wish to pursue as the role allows me to use analytical skills when looking at data and engagement, but I can also be creative when thinking of branding and campaign ideas and strategies. One of my favourite marketing assignments was during this year in IFB. Creating a brand collaboration between Blade Runner 2049 and Urban Decay was exciting and di�erent. As the marketing idea and brand strategy developed, the outcome of the collaboration launch was an interesting way to link the two brands together, and gave me the reassurance that the role of marketing is one I’d wish to follow.

I studied styling, media management and luxury brand management. Along with fashion I am very passionate about travel and always say that my dream job is one that would allow me to combine the two.

FASHION STORYTELLER

A young fashion marketer with a flair for creative writing. What I find exciting is the beauty of building a relationship between two entities, not only looking at returns but also creating a space for creativity. This is why I decided to do my diploma in Fashion in LASALLE, College of the Arts, Singapore and BA (Hons) in International Fashion Business from Nottingham Trent University. Now I want to take inventory of my dreams and a footing in fashion has taught me the essential aspects of the fashion industry, which will empower me to pursue my career. I will be equipped to gauge bottlenecks in the process and focus attention to where required. I always loved reading and from there I developed my interest in Marketing, as to me it is the art of story telling and a form of communication.

I find that my understanding and fascination in fashion, art, theatre, impressions and a new found curiosity in understanding how a business connects with its consumer, in reality, has led me to create a niche in the expressive fashion industry.

EETHICAL FASHION ENTREPRENEUR & CONCEPTUAL STYLIST

I have a clear goal to become a qualified expert in the fashion industry pursuing such features as being ambitious and motivated to achieve the highest results. I have developed a passion for fashion through jazz music. During my studies at music conservatory in Lithuania, I was captivated by the way in which clothes can be used as a visual communication tool that can change people’s behaviour, identify cultures and have a huge impact on successful career. That truly intrigued me and therefore I drastically switched my career to fashion marketing and branding. Throughout my international and multicultural university experience I learnt about essential subjects such as retail, economics, fashion design, entrepreneurship, marketing and branding. Most importantly, I found out about ethical issues caused by the fashion industry.

Today, based on my personal, academic and professional background, I feel confident to state that sustainability and ethics should be considered a must rather than a choice and the fashion world needs radical change. Although there is still a long way to go, I am very positive about a greener future and I believe that with creativity, innovation and technology there is nothing impossible!

FASHION MARKETER – INTERESTS IN FASHION MARKETING AND BRANDING

Since I was at school, I was encouraged to take a broad range of subjects. This has given me a solid grounding in several aspects. This encouragement, in turn, has taught me to keep my options open and made me willing, eager and able to be earnestly curious, resulting in learning and expanding my knowledge in various areas. As a result, I am open to several streams whilst pursuing a career in fashion.

I am computer-literate and am able to use various types of fashion related software including Photoshop and Illustrator. I have strong communication skills, a willingness and passion to learn, I’m hardworking, sociable and a good team player but also able to lead if necessary.

My experiences of living and growing up in a foreign country have made me resourceful, resilient and adaptable, all of which are qualities I could instil in and educate to others who haven’t had the chance to experience it. Apart from greatly enhancing my communication skills, living in a di�erent culture has taught me how to overcome obstacles and approach

JO TREND FORECASTING

I was born in the United States to Trinidadian parents and have lived in Italy, Switzerland, and Sweden. My international experience has provided me with acute cultural awareness and a passion for foreign languages. I have always been interested in representation within the beauty and fashion industries and wanted to explore this on a wider level. During my year in IFB I gained work experience with a London based trend forecasting company, The Future Laboratory. This experience has peaked my interest in strategic research and foresight which was first introduced to me through the trend prediction module in the first semester. My dissertation investigates the role of consumer trends in championing a more inclusive industry - a combination of my passion for diversity and my interest in future trends. This year has provided me with a catalyst of opportunities and I am excited to begin my journey in the workplace.

Fun fact about me: I speak four languages and I can make a British bake-o� worthy banana bread.

My previous major was fashion design. Now I am committed to studying the possibilities of today’s brands, especially how to combine social trends with the interests of customers. I’ve worked on a collection for Blade Runner 2049 and sports brand Y3, and a series of designs for Ukiyoe, a Japanese contemporary snack culture brand. The theme of my final project is to explore how Fendi uses experience strategy to promote brand culture in the Chinese market. In the future, I hope to further study the influences of culture on brands and possibilities of innovation. Currently, an ongoing project is to explore the possibility of Zen culture in current design.
