i've been thinking about going into a career in fashion merchandising so i have some questions..
what exactly do they do and how much do they get paid?
what are some known and good schools to go to for it?
do you need really strong math skills or do you just need to know basics?
thanks a bunch!!
[ Answer this question ] Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category? Maybe give some free advice about: School? abitsarcastic26 answered Thursday June 5 2008, 1:04 am: Some really good schools are Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC, FIDM in Cali, and Art institute which has fashion merchandising in specific locations. It depends on where you live but it depends on what you do exactly in merchandising. Being a buyer or visual merchandising or working wholesale. It depends on what career move you make. The amount you make is based on how long you have been in the industry. The more experience you have the more money you will make. Its a very difficult cut throat industry. Math is important but not a huge factor the basics what you really need.
One word of advice is its not all glamorous nor easy but if you have a love for it you will succeed. I have gone to FIT let me know if you have any other questions I will be happy to help you out. [ abitsarcastic26's advice column | Ask abitsarcastic26 A Question ]
