Forever 21

Holding the dream of making it big in the fashion industry can be a risky and expensive dream. It will take hard work, some patience and money. But to gain experience working around clothes and gaining knowledge from fashion buyers and fashion visuals it would be awesome. I have to start my knowledge somewhere and I gain my experience by working at a retail store.  I work at one of the biggest and most popular clothing store Forever 21.  This store has come along way from being a small-owned clothing store to opening so many more including in different countries. As a person who loves to shop there and who loves fashion and shopping, I was really excited to get the job. I took this as a learning experience, sometimes you have to work your way from the bottom to get to the top. So far working there I learned a lot from watching the fashion visuals work. They are responsible for deciding what products are placed in the store, they also decide where the items go and they create different themes for the entre store. The coolest part about being a visual, they are able to design window displays, mannequins and different sections of the store. It is awesome that they’re vision are displayed for all of the customers to see, it is because of their display is why customers want to buy garments. So they way they display garments are really important. Working at Forever 21 I get to see new trends come in first hand which is also pretty cool, I am able to witness what goes into designing store displays and the process of deciding what trends to put out.
