We Were At FIDM!

This week, we held our most recent stylist panel at one of the top fashion schools of all time, FIDM! (Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising). We received a warm welcome from their Student Activities committee, Mode Magazine team, and a room full of excited, enthusiastic students. Some of the topics we discussed were:

  • How to make the transition from trade to paid work

  • The smartest way to keep track of your finances as a freelance stylist

  • The importance of having a credit line

  • Building strong relationships with showrooms

  • Maintaining your unique personal brand

  • …And much more!

The panel was then followed by a Q&A with the stylists and students. We loved seeing how excited the students were for their futures in the fashion industry. Can’t wait to see them make their mark!
