Fashion is known for being a very discerning environment. It's difficult to fit in and even more difficult to grow in the business. The challenge becomes significantly more difficult if you have little or no prior experience. Someone in Italy has figured out a way to break down this step: her name is Giada Graziano, she is 27, and she is the CEO of Glam Observer.

This online platform is well-suited to following and accompanying all young individuals who aspire to work in the fashion industry. "Fashion hires thousands of people every year, so I figured there were definitely a lot of people like me who needed guidance, who wanted to know how to get that first job, how to make connections," Giada declared in a Forbes interview in February 2020. To be attractive to headhunters, what is essential then? Giada’s platform has a list of podcasts, interviews, and online courses aimed at assisting, preparing, and motivating people in this process.

Glam Observer, which debuted in 2015, is aimed at those who are just getting started in the sector as well as those who want to pursue their passion. The frequently updated platform includes information about ongoing internships, podcasts, and how-to articles, stories from others who have made a career out of it, and useful online courses, even if they are merely to help you create your own resume.

In addition, the founder has put her thoughts and reflections on the fashion process into a book, Your Fashion (Dream) Plan. Giada shares that “this book is for all the fashion enthusiasts who woke up one day saying: “My dream is to work in fashion”. However, fashion is very concrete and in order to get to the good glamorous part, you’ve got to pass through some steps with nothing less than a strategic smart plan. Giada’s book can make you start this process!

Everyone may learn how to turn their desire into a plan with the help of this career manual. Giada Graziano dispels all of the fashion industry's myths and barriers, revealing innovative techniques, mindsets, habits, and the self-confidence required for a successful profession. This book demonstrates that you don't need a fashion degree or a long list of fashion experiences to get started in this field. Stop believing all of the fashion industry's misconceptions.

“You deserve a place in fashion whatever you studied and even if you have no experience and zero connections yet.”, she wrote in her book.

Giada Graziano not only aided individuals who found themselves in the fashion industry knowing nothing about it before they began, but she also set a wonderful example. You may need to know how to design a solution from time to time, and if you can share it and make it beneficial to others, your job will be worth twice as much.
