Fashion Writers and Editors

To improve your writing skills, read as much as you can. Read all kinds of writing—not just fashion articles. Fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and essays will introduce you to many different forms of writing. Try to write every day. Write your own reviews or articles about the latest fashions or trends in the industry. Consider starting a fashion blog. You can also work as a reporter, writer, or editor on school newspapers, yearbooks, and literary magazines. Ask a teacher or school counselor to arrange an information interview with a fashion writer or editor. See if you can also shadow them on the job.
