About me
Since childhood, I have been aware of clothing and fashion. My recent degree in International Fashion Retail has given my creativity a business edge which makes me an ideal stylist, sales adviser and visual merchandising assistant.
My love of clothes and fashion extends beyond the look and deeper into the way garments and outfits make people feel. I believe that if you look good, you feel good and you feel more inspired and motivated to achieve higher goals
Skills
Through various areas of work, I have learnt and enhanced various skills I already possessed. I am able to communicate problems and have an open minded and adaptable approach to challenges and am comfortable taking responsibility for creating solutions either on my own or as a team player., In university, my course covers both the basics of sewing and textiles and the business and marketing aspects of the fashion industry. It has helped me realise my direction for the future through four years of learning including three semesters of fashion styling, and two of store design and visual merchandising.
Sector Experience
I have volunteered in the British Heart Foundation for over two years and as a design student, I have been able to bring fresh ideas to the shop floor and shop windows. This has lead to an increase in custom as the displays are eye-catching and appeal to many different people. I have also had an article in the local paper about how dressing the windows to draw in a different customer, has increased sales within the store., More recently I worked with Farah of Faz Fashion Diary on a photoshoot for HazzerWan HazLee, an up and coming designer.
