Lame. He is only talking about a very small segment of fashion buyers. Very very small.

I thought I wanted to be a stylist, but this has me rethinking. xD

Think twice! )) Buyer is also responsible for coordinating the sales. So you have to manage statistic, figures, margins as well ))))

Yes they do. At least 6 months to a year ahead.

does fashion buyer attend most fashion shows?

[FashionistaLuvsNY]

They should, in MY opinion!! They have to know trends, right?

[smashboxLIVE]

yes and most of the time. A fashion buyers job is a lot about getting paid to pick out clothes for a store and getting paid to travel around the world to see fashion shows :)
