Employment for writers is expected to grow by 5 percent (about as fast as the average for all careers) from 2023 to 2033, according to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).
Job opportunities for editors are expected to decline 2 percent through 2033, according to the DOL. The outlook for editors at newspaper publishers is especially negative; an employment decline of 19.4 percent is expected through 2033. Some bright spots are the public relations and advertising sectors, where employment for editors is expected to increase by 8.1 percent through 2033.
Because of the narrow scope of fashion writing and editing, competition for jobs will be very intense. Individuals with previous experience (especially with the Web, social media, and multimedia) and specialized education in fashion and reporting will be the most successful at finding jobs.
