4 out of 5 stars.  Really detailed and wonderful, October 19, 2009
I bought this book based on the reviews, and now I'm happy to add one. If you are a person interested in working in fashion but have no idea what you want to do, BUY THIS BOOK! Show your parents if you're young and tell them to read into it. This book has a lot of occupations in fashion, some I never even knew existed. Great details about the salary, job outlook for the future and countless other facts of info. Great buy!

3 out of 5 stars.  Over rated, February 13, 2007
It was okay, but all of this information could have been found on the internet through a search engine. Also the information is a little dated. I was dissapointed to say the least.

5 out of 5 stars.  A Book Done Right, July 18, 2003
This book really illustrated what I thought my career should be like in one of the individual job descriptions. It told about the money I would make, and everything I would do. This book has really helped my career.
