The world of fashion is a broad global industry that encompasses everything from the visual mediums of design and exhibition, to supporting disciplines behind the scenes. If you revel in looking at awe-inspiring haute couture from the Met Gala or find yourself scrolling your Insta feed to marvel at classic Chanel pieces, an exciting career in fashion might be exactly what you’re looking for.
With 14 different destinations set across some of the world’s most vibrant cities, an internship with Beyond Academy can be the perfect stepping-stone into this eclectic industry. Whatever your particular skill set or interest, you can be sure that the team at Beyond will find the right placement to suit your specialism.
Roles within the fashion industry can include everything from marketing and forecasting to design and fashion writing. Whatever your passion, take a moment to explore our creative internships and begin building your fulfilling fashion career.
It may feel like everything revolves around the glamorous and creative designer, but there are so many other areas necessary to keep the industry running. You could be assisting a costumer on a film set or taking notes while a personal stylist gets to know a new client, there is always something going on behind the scenes.
And for those who feel more at home with numbers and figures than they do with a needle or sewing machine, there’s something here for you, too. Without shop owners, merchandizers, and forecasters, this worldwide industry would quickly come to a screeching halt!
