Memoirs of a Fashion Industry Failure Volume One

“If I’m honest, I don’t really know much about fashion. At all. I am not even a very fashionable person. I wear polo shirts.” From the creator of the popular blog www.memoirsofafashionindustryfailure.blogspot.com, this comic and touchingly self-effacing book will offer you a sly peek in at the window of the strange, teetering tree-house that is the fashion industry, as well as a few useful hints about ascending the rickety ladder you have to climb up to get in... With lashings of first hand insider advice about all manner of fashion jobs from top industry names such as Amanda Wakeley, Zandra Rhodes, Giles Deacon, Tim Walker and Colin McDowell, this book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in fashion, and an ideal companion for anyone thinking of starting a fashion career. “ A raw and honest insight into an ordinarily closed-off industry ... essential and enjoyable reading.” - Olivia Pinnock, Tellus Fashion Magazine
