Hey! Your video is very helpful! My question is what did you earn money from and how while studying and can you work in local places without French citizenship?
Thank you for watching! To answer your question, I didn’t really earn money while I was studying (it was a lot of school work to balance between the two) but I have a job now so I make money. For students you are limited to a certain hours if you want to work, have a look at this link, they explain everything very well ! www.campusfrance.org/en/working-student
Hey Kate, thanks for watching! I actually live in France now almost 10 years, and no my family isn’t wealthy, we worked hard to raise the money for my studies.
Hello Victoria, did you apply for scholarships and if yes, how did you go about it? Also, could you please shed more light on the experiences you would say can be beneficial to one's application?
Hello Gloria, thank you for visiting my channel. I never applied for a scholarship. However, I do know that you can ask for scholarships directly at the school you are applying for. This varies of course with schools or the course you are applying for. Depending on where you are applying the experience will vary. Having said that, mine was very straightforward: I chose a school, I sent my application, they sent me all the details needed for the university and I went and applied for my visa. The entire process took at least 2 months. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you need any further info :-)
Unfortunately, you arrived in Paris at a time when what made French fashion elegant and unique is disappearing for a variety of reasons, from deleterious decisions to acculturation, such as the casual, frumpy, sloppy Anglo-Saxon/American style of dress that has crept in to lower standards and change society's values. The French fashion industry as well as the textile and shoe industries have been deliberately decimated but there are still a few fighters, independent houses that keep their craft alive for those who appreciate their 'art'. Those who knew the glory days of French fashion are in mourning. Hope you still see something of interest as you walk Paris streets, look at the boutiques, etc. Perhaps you have a different opinion.
Tout à fait, the fashion has really revolved - however its was also good to witness and discover the origins of different fashion houses as many of them still preserve the old traditions of historical french craftsmanship. This is definitely something I appreciated the most out of my course!
@@VictoriaMajuleGlad you found something of value in your course. The Champs-Élysées used to be the place where you could walk around dressed like a prince. This is no longer the case since the yobs invasion and mass tourists who devalued the area with their unruly behaviour and cheap and (too) casual clothes with total disregard for the population whilst multinational retail clothing and fast-food chains have replaced high end shops. A few years ago, I spoke to a few sale assistants and shop owners who lamented this situation.

Most definitely, you should!
Yes sis my Dream go to school for fashion in Paris
