CJ Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Are these people normally employed by stores? Work freelance? How do they get "qualified"? Or is it more of a case of being artistic? A friend was looking for info so I thought I'd ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Ah, the *old friend was asking* get out I'm sure there are retail courses at college these days, probably even degrees as a Bespoke window furnishing technician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 Apparently, it is now called "visual merchandising". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supramkivcork Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I worked in Zara for about 3 years. Window dressers we had were mostly store merchandisers who wanted to get out on the road rather than being stuck in the same shop the whole time. There was no particular "qualification", just an eye for fashion and display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I believe you have to go through a similar route to a fashion type degree/career. You didn't tell me you had an eye for fashion Col? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
