In an industry built on image and storytelling, your personal brand says as much as your resume. Whether you're a designer, buyer, merchandiser, or marketer, how you present yourself can help to open doors.

Your personal brand is the combination of your aesthetic, values, experience, and point of view. It shows up in your online presence, your portfolio, how you network, and even how you talk about your work. Think of it as your signature style, beyond the clothes.

Fashion professionals with strong personal brands stand out. They attract like-minded employers and collaborators. They create consistency across platforms. And they build trust with followers and decision-makers alike.

How to build your personal brand? Start simple: update your LinkedIn and portfolio with your latest work, share your insights on the industry, and be intentional about the projects you take on. Over time, your personal brand becomes a reflection of both where you’ve been and where you’re going.
