Can I make money in the Fashion industry?
I'm 13 year old girl. Since I was 11 years old, I wanted to move to NYC and become something in the fashionindustry. Now I'm living in little Norway in Europe(sorry for my bad english) The main point here. I look at shows like The Hills, and The city, and I wonder, how big is the odds for me to get jobs like they do? People I know have always said that I have a extrem style for a 13 year old girl, and they have also said that all my dreams will come true, because I'm so talented. I'm not beliving them, but it sure do help on my self-confidence. I'm not thinking of a career in fashion design, I'm NOT a good drawer, I'm thinking of a career as a styist, or something like Whitney in The City? Which possibilites do I have, and do you have some school to commend?

You're only 13, you'll probably change idea by the time you get there and yes if you are really talented, you can make money in the industry

If working in the fashion industry is your dream, go for it. Even if you are not so talented in drawing, you could take visual arts classes in secondary school. You could even take fashion courses if your school offers them, and other arts courses such as photography could help you develop your fashion sense.

It really depends on your talent and your connections. You can't just waltz in and expect to get jobs because you have good style etc. Start building up a portfolio and take classes. Learn about the industry. Attend special fashion schools. Then you'll be on your way to landing a spot in the fashion industry.

Start practicing your drawing now. You will be better than you thought, with practice. Drawing is like playing piano -- only a few people have a really great talent for it, but almost anyone can do a decent job at it if they take lessons and do what their teacher says. You don't have to paint like Michelangelo to do fashion sketches.
