Fashion Stylist Hetty Appleton-Miles on getting into the industry, developing styling skills and her personal style07 mars 202300:29:00

I chatted with Hetty Appleton-Miles Stylist at Burberry who moved to London from Australia 7 years ago. 

Hetty’s main job as Stylist for the British brand is styling the looks for the Burberry website and some digital campaigns: from developing the concept with her director to styling up to overseeing the looks on set. Like any other person working in fashion, also her working days are never the same.

From this chat, you’ll hear how she got started in the industry and you’ll be surprised to learn that she started with no formal university education. Although in the podcast she says that educating yourself outside of a traditional degree is fundamental. indeed she took several online courses to understand more about fashion. I asked her about her tips for becoming a good stylist and if this is a career you want to pursue, you will be motivated to know that she believes that styling is a skill that you can practice through work experience and that you can acquire even if right now maybe you believe you might not have it. We also chatted about her recent work trip to Paris, her favorite shows of the season as well as how she separates her personal style from her styling work.

Students stories: Georgia Rhodes on interning at Marie Claire, Glamour, Elle, and Harpers Bazaar without living in a fashion capital28 févr. 202300:34:14

Georgia Rhodes is a final-year student with already a lot of big fashion magazines on her resume including Marie Claire, Glamour, Elle, Harpers Bazaar, CR Fashion Book. 

I met Georgia in 2020 as she is one of the students of my online course Break into the fashion industry + The Fashion Writer Accelerator and in the past 3 years, she has achieved so much. I am really proud of her and happy to have been part of her professional journey and excited to share this interview with her to know where she is today. 

After an experience with a fashion marketing internship, she realized that writing was what she preferred doing.  

She felt the pressure of getting an internship for her placement year especially when she realized that applying to fashion is different from applying to any other job. It was a nerve-wracking experience as her uni didn’t really guide her on how to approach practically the job search process. She then stumbled upon the course Break into the fashion industry and after being encouraged by her grandparents to invest in her career, she enrolled and finally started seeing the first results. 

Her first experience with a magazine was at Marie Claire. She was one of the students to get the internship at Marie Claire in partnership with us exclusive for students of our academy. She then went up from there landing one internship after another at other major publications including Glamour, Elle, CR Fashion Book, Harpers Bazaar…

Today, together with writing her dissertation, she is working as a freelance for the luxury online retailer Farfetch as Content Writer as well as writing for CR Fashion Book. 

In this episode we chatted everything about: 

  • how she realized that fashion was made for her and why ended up studying fashion marketing
  • how she understood she prefers writing over marketing
  • fears and doubts about getting the first internship
  • how she managed unpaid internships
  • how she landed her first internship at Marie Claire
  • the strategy she used to land multiple internships at Glamour, Elle, Cr Fashion Book without living in a fashion capital
  • how she stays organized to manage her fashion jobs remotely
  • how she juggles studying with her current role at Farfetch and CR Fashion Book
  • the difference between writing for magazines and being the Content Writer for Farfetch
  • the tools she uses in her job
  • and her advice to land a job in fashion

3 reasons why you need to learn Excel to get a job in Fashion28 juin 202200:18:04

I get asked often what skills you need to work in fashion. There isn’t just one answer here because skills change with each position and company. 

However there is one that is common among 90% of the fashion jobs: Microsoft Excel.

Wait, what? Why? 

When we think about the fashion industry we see fashion shows, clothes, shoes, magazines… So it's hard to envision fashion workers doing anything that doesn’t include designing clothes, styling looks, and attending appointments, and fashion events.. you are unlikely to imagine them seated at their desks just like any other employee from any other industry. But the reality is that those who work in fashion spend a lot of, the majority of their time actually, on a laptop answering emails and planning and making analyses on Excel sheets. 

So if you had no idea that MS Excel is such an important skill in fashion and why then tune in as you'll learn precious insights that will boost your job search and career in this industry

6 steps to build your CV/resume when you have no experience to break into fashion07 juin 202200:26:07

I remember when I had to write my first resume. I was about to graduate in management engineering, I opened a Word document and I stared in front of it for a while looking at an empty page.


I was worried that I couldn’t add anything relevant and so I was thinking: “why would companies want to hire me when they will for sure receive other applications from people with more experience or even better schools?”


Fast forward 10 years later, as a fashion career coach, I’ve learned many things and I know that while it’s normal to have those fears, they were actually living more in my head.


In fact, I broke into fashion with an internship at a top company: Alexander McQueen in the ecommerce department, despite I was still that girl with:


  • a degree in management engineering
  • no connections
  • not born and raised in a fashion capital 
  • without previous experience in fashion 


So yes, it’s absolutely possible to get into fashion even if you have no experience yet (if you think about it’s quite logical, right? Or how would everyone else, including Anna Wintour have done?) 


So if you are like me 10 years ago looking to:


  •  write your first resume to apply for your first job in fashion 
  • or you already have a resume but you are not getting responses from companies


then tune in to listen to the 6 steps.

Join me tomorrow June 8th, 6:30pm CET / 12:30pm EST  for the only LIVE WORKSHOP of the year: The fashion resume party where we will build together your CV/resume live on Zoom > https://glamobserver.com/resume-live-class/

5 most common resume mistakes in fashion (and how to stop making them)31 mai 202200:16:12

Are your job applications falling through the craps?

While there could be many reasons why your job applications are not working, your resume is for sure a significant decision-maker for recruiters. You might not be getting the job because of resume mistakes that will prevent your application to go to the next steps. 

A recruiter spends on average 3 seconds to decide whether your resume deserves a chance or if it’s better to move on to the next one.


On average 500 resumes are submitted for the same fashion job/internship.

This means that most of the resumes are not read.


Tune in to discover what are the most common resume mistakes made in fashion so you will stop making them.

Want to finally build an irresistible resume that fashion companies will love even if you have no experience?

Why is Anna Wintour so powerful? With Amy Odell author of Anna The Biography24 mai 202200:35:48

We all know Anna Wintour as the iconic editor-in-chief of Vogue. You might recognize her for the bob cut, her black glasses and her floral dresses.

But she's not only a strong leader with an extraordinary work ethic, and she's neither so cold in reality.

I've been fascinated by Anna Wintour for a long time and if you have read my book Your Fashion Dream Plan you know that there is an illustration as well as a chapter with her name. So I was very excited to sit down with Amy Odell who has just published her book Anna the biography. 

Amy has built up Anna Wintour's story by interviewing more than 250 people over the past 3 years. 

In this podcast episode we chatted about Anna Wintour: 

  • why she is so powerful in fashion 
  • why do people beyond fashion ask for her opinion (including Serena Williams and Bradley Cooper when he had to cast for A star is born). 
  • if there is Vogue without Anna Wintour
  • who could replace her 
  • and if the next editor in chief will be as influential as Anna

Why you need to learn MS Excel NOW if you want to work in Fashion18 janv. 202200:12:54

When it comes to working in the fashion industry you might believe that the sense of style is the most in-demand skill, but in many careers of the industry, this is not even a requirement!

Want to know which is the most frequently requested skill in the fashion industry? Microsoft Excel!

Yes, I was surprised too when almost a decade ago I learned during my first fashion internship at Alexander McQueen that anyone in fashion uses this tool on a daily basis AND in each role.

Many who are familiar with the different careers in fashion might believe that this is a tool used mainly by the most analytical roles of the industry such as buyers or merchandisers, but ANYONE including stylists, designers, PR specialists... use Excel.

Hint. this is not just a tool used to analyze numbers. And it's not just used by seniors but interns as well!

Tune in and listen to this short but useful episode to learn how people in fashion use Excel and why you need to learn it if you want to work in fashion this year.
