Day 1 and an Introduction

Hello,

I kept thinking to myself, sitting alone on the campus of FIDM outside, how much would other people maybe like to peer into the world where young fashionistas are about to take the industry by storm. The possible future leaders and style and design could be sitting in a classroom with me (probably not) or eating that delicious looking salad just across the way.

My name is Brayden. I'm in my first quester here at FIDM and am majoring in Merchandise Marketing. Over the last 72 hours I've learned something very important:

I'm not in Toronto anymore.

This little blog of mine will be a glimpse, possibly even a passing glance, at what it's like to go to fashion school. Mind you I'm not the one who will be designing anything or sewing through my fingers (although I've done it once, and it sucked) I will be letting you know how it is here in downtown LA and how much I want to lose my mind.

I think it's too soon for introductions really. I do like to leave something to the imagination, afterall you may think I'm not stylish enough for your tastes and just run off and read BryanBoy some more. So for now I'll let you minds run wild, and get right down to the nitty-gritty of it all.

Day 1 has been nice so far. It's about 72 degrees out here in SoCal in the beginning of January (jealous?) which this Canadian can't really complain about... yet. My first instructor of the day was a GM for the Mid-Pacific islands for Chanel, which is obviously amazing, and we dove right into the materials and introduced ourselves. Later in the day we have History of Costume, which I'm dying to get to.

I'll leave you for now, we don't want to make this too long-winded and boring although I'm certain I passed that point a long, long time ago.

Talk to you soon kids. and remember to dress up! Coming soon: FIDM's very first look of the day.
