Kiki loves fashion by Harbey Peña Sandoval
On September 23 at 10:00 a.m., I went to Students Commons at VCU. I spoke with Kierra Kemp, but she likes to call her “Kiki”. She is studying mass communication, but she will change her major for fashion merchandising. I asked why she is going to change her major. She said that she loves fashion. Her parents agree with her idea because they want that Kiki will be happy. I asked what classes she is going to take. She told me that there are different class levels. For example, Kiki is going to study Art History I and II, Accounting for not Business I and II, and Marketing I and II. Also, Kiki is going to take Introducing to Fashion. Then, I asked what kind of job she wants to work. She told me that she wants to be a buyer. I asked what a buyer is. Kiki explained me that it is a person that goes to fashion shows and buy the clothes there. A buyer is an important employee because it is who choose what kind of clothes the store will sell. A buyer should be really good in fashion. Finally, I asked in what fashion store she wants to work, and Kiki said that she wants to work in Saks Fifth Avenue. Kiki told me that Saks Fifth Avenue is an expensive store in New York, and she hopes to work there.
