My motivation for this blog


First of all, I’d like to introduce myself a little bit. I am a 22 year old student from Germany doing a semester abroad at Griffith College in Dublin. I’m doing a Bachelor’s degree in International Business and my main subjects are Human Resource Management and Marketing.
After High School I decided to do an internship in a fashion company as I have been always interested in this. Not only that I’m passionate about styling and fashion as a way to define a personality or lifestyle, but also because my father owns a textile intermediary agency in Germany, that I’d love to work for one day. So I applied for internships and did my first one in Switzerland in the Design and Product Development Headquarters of Hugo Boss. My second working experience was right after finishing with HB in Barcelona with Prominent Apparel Spain, a design office working for the Inditex Group (one of the world’s largest textile corporations which owns Zara, Massimo Dutti, Stradivarius, Pull&Bear, Induyco among others).
During my internships I got in touch with social aspects of my passion for the first time. I never thought about this before and it took me some time to reflect all the new facts and opinions so that I could make my own point of view. I will try to give people with less insight information an overall view about this topic and I hope you will enjoy reading my thoughts and that you can make up your minds.
