Fashion Merchandising Jobs

Im a freshman at a community college trying to complete my requirements to get a certifercate in fashion merchandising. I was thinking of going for the design certifercate too because were required to take electives anyways.

I was wondering if it is a good idea because I want to transfer to FIDM after i get my AA after 2 years at this school. Is this discouraged??

Most people I attend school with are Merchandising majors and Business Minors. It gives you a better understanding of what it takes to make it in the merchandising world.

i have to do an math project that have to relate to my major do anyone have any ideas. Please i need help fast
it doesnt matter what tactics to use whether it from addition to geometry money to stocks etc

Without additional details (e.g., what type of math — stats? calculus? trig?), it's hard to make a suggestion. . . but what about something to do with pricing, taxes, and moving stock?

Does anyone know of a good, high quality sewing machine for under $500? I need one, as I'm changing my major to fashion merchandising, and in order to be able to design my own line and all, I need a good sewing machine, however I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on it. I'd be willing to get a used one from Ebay or something if I knew it was high quality…any suggestions from you pros?

Try the " brother " or " Singer " brands

I am a fashion Merchandising Major, and i don't own any top named brand clothing. I dress really cute and fashionable but I have never owned Abercrombie, Aeropostale, D&G,Hollister or American Eagle.

Is this odd coming form a major as mine?? (I buy whats AFFORDABLE but still)

I do wear Duck Head,Polo/Ralph Lauren, Levi, Guess,Zana Di, and I shop at Claires.

I don't think it's weird at all. There is no rule that says to be a fashion major of any kind you have to wear these name brands of clothing. It's not that those Named brands you listed are top name brands, just the most notable in that age demographic. After you graduate you are going to be in a whole new fish pond and trust me, its better to have a great creative, edgy fashion then a cookie cutter (no offense to those that wear them) If I wanted fashion advice on how to look like a teenager, I'd consult one that wore that type. If I wanted true advice, I'd ask someone that could blend together a great mix of classic, creative, vintage. Shows that they pay attention to whats in the fashion world, not the fashion mall. Look at an issue of Vogue or Elle or Harper's Bazaar. Are they featuring the new great looks from A&F, Aero, A&E, or Hollister…um no. Stay original, I think for one it will help you in the long run! Good luck on your degree!

Im wondering because i want to be a fashion buyer, like what rachel was in friends, but which would i have to major in fashion marketing or fashion merchandising???

it doesnt really matter they both are the samething if you search for more information on the two you can be a fashion buyer for both of them and also make sure you go to a good school not one that advertise itself on tv late at night those always seem a little sketchy go to top cities like miami, los angelos, new york, chicago and parts of europe..its a risk but its a great career

Okay, well I know I'm really interested in Fashion Merchandising/Buying. The University I'm at currently doesn't offer a specific Fashion Merchandising major, but does offer Consumer Science and Merchandising major… BBBUT, I want to major in business (marketing) with a focus on retail (which my school suggests for people who want to do retail merchandising/buying)… then minor in Consumer Science and Merchandising and if I can, (I don't know if we can have 2 minors) also minor in Psychology. Does that sound like a good plan? Any suggestions? Maybe I should trying getting a job (next summer) at an apparel store?!

The answers and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

I think it is better to work in fashion store after you have some fashion/garment knowledge. lt can help you sale in store. then, you enter into store, you could hard to learn how to sale and how to ideal with different customers which you could not learn fm your university. Much experience make you victory
