HI DOLLS,
How are
you?
As you are
all aware, I had just finished another internship –my first fashion internship with Sponsor me
awards internship and mentioned I had a second one approaching! We this is it guys! Well,both are
over now, time flies hey!
I was a PR
intern for a London style company in central London. They work with
celebrities, VIP events, well known brands and LFW (London Fashion Week) I LITERALLY 5 days off after my first internship I was on to the next one! Ridiculously crazy but
amazing right?
What kind
of specific duties would this internship entail?
Well, if
you are looking to go down the PR route, definitely take up a PR intern in the
city! You’ll network around and it will definitely provide you more than you
expected! Main duties were to organise and write up all the invitations to
guests, VIP etc for the Kilian Kerner show.. We, (me and 3 other interns) had to
travel all over central to drop the gold invites off personally.. It was fun
visiting different publications, companies, famous names and had a visit to
Models1!
It was indeed stressful at times- for me
anyways as my iphone was, -and is- always
misbehaving and died on me a couple of times. VERY convenient (!) So it was not
pleasant holding dead phone while being lost in the rain! After a hectic week
of organizing, checking the guest list, sending out emails and invites I was
able to work in the office!
Gold invites ;)
As per
usual for any intern, I was placed in the position to help out with all the
admin work alone. It was hectic: receiving emails constantly, picking up calls,
sorting out all ins and outs of the stock in the company. I managed to overcome
the tasks given and it went smoothly towards the end. The girls and I got along
well and had our banter (as you do), discussing all the shoes, clothes, fashion
and all that malarkey! Even boys and the gossip in the industry!

I also
helped out a famous presenter pick out outfits from our collection in the
showroom for her upcoming events in London! It was fun! The check in and out
process was long but I loved working along designers that I love! Their clothes,
shoes bags, accessories for clients was
another long but fun task! I LOVE clothes, especially the labels in our
showroom, so it was fun playing dress up with the girls after the tasks were
completed! A lot happened at the same time but those are a few! It was a very “hands
on” job, and although it was stressful as our PR Company were chosen to organise
the LFW for KK. Overall, I was able to network and gain useful contacts and we managed
to pull through and have a successful London Fashion Week show, so that was
another huge accomplishment to be part of it!
It was purely aimed to work at the London Fashion
Week show.
MY OUTFIT!
THANK YOU for the gift.

The designer Kilan Kerner. It was a
privileged to work alongside a humble, yet very talented designer: Kilian
Kerner.

Created
beautiful eye-catching pieces that will go down in history! I believe he will
become a HUGE success in the UK and will be asked to come back for another LFW
show!
I
particularly love these pieces..
So classy, elegant.. just beautiful!
The
models looked beautiful in them and it just showed off that an idea can turn
into an art piece -magnificent!
Well.. what an incredible end to my summer holidays! Very productive! Blessed.
