Hello fashion fans,
My name is Rachael Katherine
Paladino and I am a fashion merchandising and retail marketing student at
Johnson & Wales University in Providence, RI. I am a junior in college and
have a passion for fashion!
It all started back in
eighth-grade, on weekend shopping sprees with friends, when fashion became a
passion. In high school, I became extremely involved in the fashion design
club. As part of the club, I constructed several recyclable dresses that
provided me with experience in how a take a sketch of a design and emerge it
into a final creation. This knowledge
led me to seek out a more in-depth program that could educate me as to career
possibilities in the fashion industry. The summer of 2008, I attended Fashion
Camp NYC at LIM, which is located in Manhattan, NY. This camp introduced me to many
careers opportunity’s in the fashion industry. After my experience at Fashion
Camp NYC, I was able to bring back useful information for the other future
fashion designers, like myself who was part of the fashion design club at St.
Peter Marian High school. When I attended JWU, I was able to find a club on
campus that was involved with fashion. The club that I am currently part of is
called the International Fashion Society (IFS). I am on the board as
the public relation specialist.
I am creating this blog for
my fashion forecasting class. I will be posting
each week. I hope you enjoy reading and learning all you will need to know
about fashion forecasting and the fashion industry.
Enjoy!!!
Rachael Katherine Paladino
