5 INSIDER TIPS TO LAND YOUR DREAM ROLE IN FASHION ✨
The fashion industry moves fast, but the right strategy moves faster. At Between Research, we connect top talent with the world’s leading luxury Maisons.
Swipe through to discover the 5 pillars of a successful career strategy in today’s landscape.
1️⃣ Network before you need to.
Don’t wait until you’re looking for a new job to build your circle. Stay consistently connected with managers, colleagues, and suppliers. Visit exhibitions and industry events in person, keep your digital profile sharp and updated, and build relationships with specialized recruiters today. Opportunity favors the connected.
2️⃣ Match the Maison’s DNA.
Your technical skills get you the interview, but your “Cultural Fit” gets you the job. Before you step into the room, deeply study the brand’s unique heritage, recent runway directions, and core values. Show them you already live and breathe their aesthetic.
3️⃣ Show your process, not just the final look.
When reviewing portfolios, top brands look for problem-solvers. Don’t just showcase beautiful final sketches; include your moodboards, raw material research, and the exact steps of how you overcame design and technical challenges. Let them see how you think.
4️⃣ Speak the language of data.
A passion for the product gets you in the room, but metrics give a crystal-clear picture of your actual impact. Transform generic CV duties into quantifiable results. Did you improve efficiency? Increase sales? Reduce waste? Let the numbers tell your success story.
5️⃣ Master the science of sustainability.
Sustainability is the most complex innovation companies have faced in recent years. Position yourself as a key player in this evolution. And if you haven’t been directly involved in those processes yet? Be curious! Learn the terms, the certifications, and the future of responsible luxury.
