    Styling AssistantHarvey Nichols
    Northampton, United KingdomFreelance
    The opportunity I was given to work within this company has proven to be one of the most valuable experiences for my chosen career choice. Following instructions from the stylists, my role consists of organising the rail and dressing the models for daily shoots to ensure we are working to the efficient time-frame required, I will then steam each garment so they are in pristine condition ready to be photographed. Another important part of my role is to enter the data for each garment onto a computer system to then be uploaded to the Harvey Nichols website.
