About You
I really enjoyed working here, even though some of the tasks were repetitive the staff and other interns made it a lovely place to work!
I felt very valued in this role, people seemed genuinely appreciative when you helped them.
The sample room manager was lovely, I never felt worried to ask anyone for help.
Although some of the tasks were repetitive it was great when the highly experienced staff shared little helpful tips
The Company
Some days there was lots to do, other times it was quieter, there are quite a lot of interns that work here.
The staff and interns made it a really nice environment to work in, as this was my first internship I was quite nervous about starting but there was nothing to be worried about at all.
Taught us the basics on the first day/picked it up from other interns, they did say I could come back whenever though which was nice.
I definitely understand what goes on in a high end fashion brand now, and what it takes to make a collection in a company such as this, whereas before working here I don't think I really knew about all the components that go into it, and all the different jobs involved.
Helped me understand what it is like to work in a company such as this.
It has made me realise all the different roles involved in a high end fashion brand
Everything Else
There were no expenses, but free tea and coffee!
got to meet lots of different employees with different job roles.
the other interns were all very lovely and social, we went out for drinks and have stayed in touch.
I don't think there were any.
yes, it was a lovely place to work, often tasks were menial or repetitive but I think that any internships are going to be like that, I learnt a lot in my three weeks here, met some lovely people and really enjoyed my time here. I have heard horror stories about companies such as Peter Pilotto and McQueen treating their interns really badly and this wasn't like that at all. People seemed genuienly grateful for your help.
