Sydneysider posting.
As my wonderful, yet stressful journey of being a fashion intern continues, last week I found myself working on another exciting event- the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival!
For anyone contemplating on doing it but not sure if it's worth it or not. I say do it because it really is an experience that not a lot of people will ever get to try.
It can be hard work at times for example, on the first day I volunteered to do a 13 hour shift and boy was I dead by the end of it! But the end result is worth it and you get to meet people that you admire in the industry whilst pulling a few contacts (which is always good.) Also, think about all the goodie bags you get to steal after the show ;)
