In this article we would like to provide you with some ideas of discussion topics that you can use when working in the fashion industry.
There are many topics you can touch on, however it is common knowledge that discussing politics, religion, payments and colleagues/companies/agencies is absolutely NOT RECOMMENDED.
Appropriate topics vary depending on the person you are talking to and the setting.
If you are talking to a designer or a stylist you can discuss the latest fashion trends and the latest fashion colours for the current season/year. It's a good idea to be curious and ask for the designer's opinion. This will help you find out more about their taste and character. You can ask for advice or ask what they think are your best colours.
You can talk to the makeup artists about skincare, their favorite products, the latest makeup trends, and if there are any they like. You can also ask for advice on suitable products and skincare for your type of skin or share if you have a skin condition. They will certainly be happy to help.
You can ask the hairdresser about hair care and what hairstyle would suit you best ( if you should change anything according to them) as well as what their favourite products, hair types and hairstyles are.
You can speak to producers, clients or their representatives, other models and the rest of the team about the development of AI and how it affects the fashion industry, fashion events (shows, films, exhibitions), your career in fashion, favourite brands and designers.
Working in fashion makes for a variety of conversations on creative topics. Try to represent yourself in a positive manner by bringing up current fashion topics and leave aside personal conversations about politics, money, religion and discussing other
people.
