Fashion Coordinator

From the runways to high-class design firms, the fashion business punches the clock in time to the Fashion Coordinator’s instructions. In the take-charge role of a Fashion Coordinator, you serve as Manager, Designer, Planner, and fashion expert all in one. In short, you’re the pulse of the fashion industry.

Fashion isn’t just for the big-name Designers to tackle. It trickles down into virtually every aspect of day-to-day life, from the shirts at a thrift shop to the bulks of fabric at a craft store. As a Fashion Coordinator, you live and breathe the latest fashion trends, and oversee major design, ad, and marketing campaigns for your clients.

Who needs your services? More people than you might imagine. Textile Designers need your insider fashion advice to choose patterns and colors for next season’s fabrics, retail stores plan displays around your chosen fashion theme, and manufacturing companies coordinate their clothing lines not only with the current fashion trends but also with the lines in the rest of their stores. No matter where you turn, everyone wants in on the latest trends.

The key to pulling off a successful fashion campaign is unity. Your trips to the runways of New York tell you that blues are in and feathers are making their comeback. Jot that down in your notebook and start blending these popular themes into your work, whether it’s a clothing line or a magazine ad. Your sense of style is the cohesion that keeps a company’s fashion department working together, and the profits rolling in.
