From Classroom to Catwalk: Good, Bad, and Fab’s Jenny Wu
CF: What’s your least favorite part of your job?
JW: Because I’m my own boss, I definitely take on more than I can chew on a daily basis. So most of the time I find myself juggling ten different projects at once, which can be overwhelming.
CF: What’s been a standout/favorite moment of your career that you’ve been particularly proud of?
JW: Attending Milan Fashion Week!
CF: What’s a typical day like for you?
JW: There really is no typical day, but most of the time I’ll write in the morning, schedule meetings or outfit shoots in the afternoon, and attend fashion events at night.
CF: What’s your favorite piece in your closet?
JW: My red Gucci pumps as they were my first pair of designer shoes purchased with my first lawyer paycheck!
CF: What advice would you give a College Fashion reader who wants your job?
JW: Network, network, network. Meet as many people in the industry as you can and make meaningful connections with them. You never know when/how one of them might be able to help you out with your job search.
