Product Description
TEEN VOGUE grants budding stylistas an all-access pass into the high-profile and glamorous world of fashion in THE TEEN VOGUE HANDBOOK: An Insider’s Guide to Careers in Fashion.
With superb photos, interviews with industry icons such as Marc Jacobs, Bruce Weber, and Patrick Demarchelier, and six sections that include information from editors and assistants, the handbook serves as a link between the style-conscious girl and the seemingly impenetrable fashion world.
Fashion Designer, Karl Lagerfeld says, “Ask yourself, Are you sure this world is for you? And are you sure you are the right person to survive in this world–the world of fashion, a world with no rules, no laws?”
Vogue Editor in Chief Anna Wintour says, “Do your homework, go online, visit every museum, and intern. You just need to have a love for what you’re doing. It’s not about thinking that it’s the cool thing; it’s about really believing in it.”
For more advice and anecdotes, as well as behind-the-scenes secrets about industry stars, pick up THE TEEN VOGUE HANDBOOK. A must-read for anyone interested in fashion.

This book is a fun read for a long plane flight or a long road trip. But almost all of the suggestions are just a brush on the surface. Read it to get an idea or to get you excited about a career choice, but it doesn’t give you much to work with to get you in the right direction. The examples stories and interviews in the book are fun to read. And the pictures are very eye candy (just like Teen Vogue Magazine). For example one of the designers in the book said that you should try to get an internship to get a good idea of the fashion business….well, duhhh…everyone knows that. Plus, he doesn’t tell you how to find the internship, how to get an interview for the internship, what you should do on the interview (how to answer the interview questions, what to wear, what designers are looking for in an intern, etc… so there are a lot of unanswered questions that the book left out. After reading this book, I felt that I was still lost and I had to dig into other sources (very hard to find) to uncover more tips and secrets of the trade.
Rating: 3 / 5
This book is an absolutely incredible resource for anyone already in the fashion industry–or trying to break into it. It has interviews and career tips from industry greats (Anna Wintour), the biggest designers (Karl Lagerfeld, Marc Jacobs, Stella McCartney, Alexander Wang, Tory Burch, Phillip Lim, Proenza Schouler, Thakoon), amazing photographers (Mario Testino, Bruce Weber, Patrick Demarchelier, Arthur Elgort), and even models like Chanel Iman. Seriously a MUST-HAVE.
