I research worldwide lifestyle and cultural trends that will affect fashion (color, material, silhouette, styling and details) two years ahead of selling season. Ask me anything.
I did a double major in fashion merchandising and product development but there is no formula. History, Sociology, Marketing are all good classes to be taking. I think its more important to do an internship and make contacts than to go for more school.
I double majored in Fashion Merchandising and Fashion Design and then did an internship in forecasting and that's how I got the job. Interning at a trend agency is a great place to start.
