Ever wondered what a fashion publicist does, how to become a successful stylist, how a fashion editor spends her day, or what it takes to be a buyer?
The Fashion Bomb periodically chats with fashion movers & shakers to find out how they got their start, what they did to succeed, and their tips & strategies on getting in the door. Why not meet Krista Land, an Associate Buyer at Macy's who landed her coveted spot the old fashioned way...an internship!
"I would advise college students to intern in retail to get a feel for the business and have a better idea if it's something that they want to pursue," she says, noting that in addition to a good eye for fashion, a successful buyer is organized, flexible, and "pretty good with numbers since those things play a big part in the job."
