Intern

Last year, we noticed a trend of innovative fashion brands finding success with a little help from popular crowdfunding site Kickstarter. One menswear company raised a whopping $400,000 to get off the ground and since then, a sweatshirt line raised over $1 million from the site's pool of benefactors. Of course, Kickstarter is home to a wide variety of projects--and recently we've noticed another segment of the fashion industry using it as an outside-the-box funding method: magazines.

September is almost upon us, which means Fashion Week, Fashion Week, and two more Fashion Weeks. To help us get through Fashion Month, we're looking for one intern, who should be eligible to receive school credit. The internship tenure will equal the length of one semester, and you should be able to come into our downtown New York office at least two days a week, if not three. You should also be: A good writer. Proficient--if not a master--in Photoshop. A close follower of industry news. Well-versed in fashion history. This does not mean that you need to know every single name of every single type of blouse collar, but you should know several, as well as the exact number of times Kate Moss has appeared on the cover of British Vogue. A self-starter. This internship isn't about photocopies, it's about covering breaking news, covering events, and covering fashion shows. It sounds exciting, but it means that you're doing real work all day long. There isn't much trolling on the Internet here, unless of course you're looking for this week's Best Dressed. What you'll get in return: Lots of guidance, encouragement, several clips, and a chance to introduce yourself to the industry. As a Fashionista intern you're treated as part of the family. Interested? Send your resume, cover letter, and a 560 x 300 graphic that you believe would work well on the site to work@fashionista.com. Bonne chance!
