How To Become Fashion Buyer And What Is A Trend Brodcaster | Future of Fashion | British Vogue
/ vogue - Розваги
I remember watching this when it first came out and wanting to become a buyer. Didn't think it would happen at the time. This popped up on my suggestions and now I'm watching this as a buyer. Life's funny 🤣
I love that for you!
Hey, can I please talk to you directly.. I'm looking to get a job as a trainee buyer and I'm trying to do some research but I'm struggling with some information 🙏🙏
So happy for you! I’m a sales person, I decided to move towards a fashion career a year ago. I want to become a buyer but not sure how to make that jump
I feel like Alexa Chung is the perfect personality for this series!
I agree! She keeps it simple, informative and funny 👍🏼
+crystalconfetti I have a crush now! Ha she is so beautiful and she seems fun.
Yes she is! just fun to watch her :)
crystalconfetti yes she's so curious well spoken & intelligent fasionista
Absolutely agree
For a long time I thought I wanted to study fashion design and then before going to uni I realized I loved fashion but I wasn't seeing myself being an actual fashion designer. This series is so great because it makes you understand that there's a lot more in the fashion world and there's a place for everyone. I'm studying graphic design now but I really want to get in the fashion industry in the future!
This series should definitely longer than 6 episodes! I hope there will come more series than this on the channel!
One of my favourite videos out of this series! Paul Smith and Judd Crane really resonated with me in terms of finding out hidden career options within Fashion and it was so interesting to see how WGSN works and how they forecast - love their coverage of window displays from around the world.
I'm honestly a little disappointed in this episode, there is so much more to fashion buying than sitting at a fashion show and picking out clothes. Buyers must know their clientele's tastes and preferences, and not to mention have extensive knowledge of merchandising such as Open To Buy systems, six month planning, inventory maintenance, and vendor relations. I wish a little more of that was covered in this segment instead of just sweeping over the basic idea of fashion buying.
Well said 👌🏾
They made it seem so fabulous when that's only part of the job
yes, they spend a lot of time in talking about fashion forcasting.
Well said, I think what they shared in this segment is important, but it does go so much deeper ,
I am definitely glad they started this series, I think it helps people realize how much hard work goes in to not only the fashion industry, but the retail industry as well. Hopefully there will be another season that covers more of the retailing aspect of fashion.
This is making me regret not being brave and picking fashion as a degree
its never to late. Many people are self trained in buying or fashion. If you want to be a designer you need to start at the bottom,work hard and have quality work. Same thing as buyer, if you have a business degree many buyers do. Hope that incorages you.
+ok +watermelonprincess I agree! There's a great book out there, it's called "Leave your mark" by Aliza Licht! Could be interesting for you :)
+watermelonprincess Never too late for a change :)
+watermelonprincess I would say just go out there and get experience. You dont have to have a degree in fashion to work in it. I've had a lot of experience in media and write for a fashion magazine, and I'm doing a Psych degree. I just spend my spare time doing media related things
+watermelonprincess fashion still needs you! so many of us studied it and didn't really get to learn much else while we did. the industry is 360 but most of us will graduate with only a 90 degree perspective. whatever you studied, you can work in fashion.
Please keep this series going...FOREVER! Could watch Alexa on repeat, day and night. Great work British Vogue.
This series is amazing. I've recently in the past few years discovered a passion for fashion and my own style voice and this is just blowing my mind with how much goes into it all.
Best episode yet! The more in-depth and longer the better!
absolutely loving this series!! alexa is fantastic at keeping it simple and to the point while being informative, its so interesting to see inside the fashion industry!
I absolutely adore these series and Alexa is the perfect host for this! X
Absolutely love this new series! Alexa Chung is gorgeous!! 😊
I absolutely adore these videos, they are full of personality, aesthetics and useful information that has completely inspired me. I would love to work in the fashion industry!
Loved this episode! This series is just what I needed and Alexa is presenting it brilliantly!!!❤️
Love that it's actually educational & informative ❤️
Planning to go back to college to take more fashion classes and then I found this series. THANK YOU! Started to believe busting into the industry would be damn near impossible, but this has opened my eyes and heart again. To be honest, I believe I'm now converted to British Vogue...
love this he really opened my eyes up at the begining of so many spectrums of the design world so inspiring
This video has literally MADE FOR ME . Thank you sooo much
This is a fantastic series, and I am so glad it exists. Thank you.
amazing series. the best one on youtube about the fashion industry. just what people seeking to enter the industry need!
I needed this video!everything about it is perfect! Thank you!
This is giving me a deeper view of fashion! Might actually follow through with my dream to work in the fashion industry that seemed impossible.
urghh I LOVE Alexa Chung!!!! These videos are becoming the highlight of my week, I love it!
Ahh, this series is perfect and so inspirational for me. I'm pursuing fashion management and was a bit shaky as to what options I would have upon graduating. Thank you British Vogue and Alexa Chung.
Oh my god. I love this series!!! I'm learning so much.
love it!! this is really inspirational! good work Alexa, love you!
Love this series. Wish I had something like this when I was going through fashion school.
love how Alexa is always concentrated on and inspired by those interviews!
this is a great series with alexa as a perfect presenter. i have shared it with my two daughters (aged 11 and 13) to encourage them to think of fashion as a viable and accessible career. style is fun.
it is such a great series to do, thanks for making those videos. I've always been so curious about what fashion industry can contribute to job outcomes. There's so much stereotypes about the fashion industry. Everybody is telling me that fashion does not going to get me a job. ;) thanks for the episodes
Loving this series! Not a fashion designer per say, tho just about anything artistic intrigues me, but as a creative, I find this super fascinating! Thanks for taking us behind the curtains.
I love the series so far. It is great to get some insights into the fashion buying career; would love to do that one day.
Alexa is just fabulous, this series is so great!
Shes so much fun to watch and listen to!
loved this one!!!
Not even joking this series has made me have a whole different opinion on Alexa Chung. You are so babin' girl! So down to earth, I am so grateful that I stumbled across this series. Subscribed. xx
Alexa Chung, you are doing awesome job with these video series, looking forward to more
i love this alexa, keep doing more please!!!

Another excellent show well done chick!!! Hope you do more shows like this!!! 💚👍💚
Really enjoy the Future of Fashion series, has a very thoughtful and sometimes philosophical view of the fashion industry and specific professions.
Amazing video, I love it!
Love this series.

Great information!
This is so perfect wow
Love Paul Smith and his energy - inspiring
Great video!
Vogue always fantastic
Who's watching this series just for Alexa :)? Her voice is mesmerizing and she is knowledgeable about the industry and asks the right questions that lead to an informative conversation. Love it
I love this series ^^
Ok I want a job at WGSN lol
Ahh me too :)
+Atikah Z me too!!
Thanks great information
Nice video and love it
This is so perfect for me right now. I'm finishing my business degree and a lot of the jobs I'm applying to have to do with fashion forecasting/buying/marketing. I know the job I apply to wont be nearly as glamourous as in the companies shown here but this still made me really really excited! Getting paid for stalking brands and influencers on instagram?? YES PLEASE 😁🙌
i wish this series would never end
OMG! How adorable is Paul Smith? *Gah*
it is so cool seeing all these jobs that I never knew existed. Its really piqued my interest into being on the lookout for these jobs
Good job 👏
Good video!
Great video
please please please make this series a permanet one!
I'm studying marketing and looking forward to make a career in trend forecasting, fashion public relations, brand management or visual merchandising. Basically anything related to fashion and marketing.
Best video!
we love Alexa Chung!
love Alexa's voice
"We buy things we love so that other people can buy them" ....that's a nice job!
I Love this video and I am also a Fashion Merchandising Major..Watching the video makes me a bit nervous because there are hardly any people of color and afraid I wont fit in.
irepdesigner TV Yourself is your own obstacle. Work on yourself to let go of your negative mindset. How come Asians are so educated and successful at everything they set their minds into? It's their strong values and tough work ethic.
Be the best at your skill it'll give you that confidence!
Wonder how are you doing now? Coz I thought it’s cool that you’d be bringing unique perspective to merchandising.
I hate that everyone is telling you to just be confident, it is more than just being confident. When you are a person of color, Particularly, Black, Latin, Middle Eastern etc. we are always the last or after thought especially in the fashion industry. We have so many skills and great ideas that we can bring to the table but are not able to have the same opportunities as others and that is the problem! It is now 2020 and I myself feel the same way and I've studied fashion in my undergrad and currently an art student. I just hope that the industry continues to progress in all areas. Let's just keep the faith that it will @Jimmy I feel your pain. Hope you are well!
MY SAME THOUGHTS!!!!!!!
Aww, love Paul Smith, I got a big navy wool sweater from them this season. Bliss!!!! :)
Interesting!
This series has just been absolutely brilliant!
Cannot wait for the next episode.
Nice!
alexa chung is perfection
I have ambitions to become a menswear buyer and it was interesting that he said to come from a background outside of buying ie merchandising or a service background.
“People on the fashion industry is very sane” this is why I love them ❤️🤣
Wish this was a longer video.
Love the shirt dress.
Could you do one on fashion journalism😏
Please do an ep about fashion pr and communications
I'm a fashion business major and I'm sooo excited to get into the industry
BeingTiffany how are you? 3 years later :)
What about now? Six years later
@@k.t155 omg this was sooo long ago lol... I graduated from FIT and have been working in the industry since, it's going well! Thanks ya'll
I freaking loooove Alexa! ✌️
The individuals featured in the video seem nice, very serious about their creative process/responsibilities. 😊
Alexa is amazing
Good video
really insightful video... through the conversation, I could not help but reason with - How can a buyer disconnect from always buying his taste and choice in clothes to actually curating a mixture of what everyone else would like? Any views?
I just started a job in the fashion marketing industry and these videos are so helpful! I got a little bit lucky that my hometown has such a huge media company in it, but I'd encourage anyone considering it to stick with what you feel you're good at because there are so many options!
Going down the Art School route, then interning and actually getting a job I realised that the industry wasn't for me. I guess I just like style and the expression that comes with it!.
Nice video
BTW, love this show! u-u
And this is why I'm a merchandising major ♡♡♡
Paul Smith - what a man!
Cool video
Nice
