How Much Do You Really Know About Fashion Industry Jobs?

Watch this: Moda Operandi created a hilarious new video featuring some of the coolest names in fashion right now, including Lady Gaga’s stylist, Brandon Maxwell; designer Wes Gordon; and makeup artist Gucci Westman. The video challenges the industry players’ nearest and dearest, including their parents and their best friends, to quiz them on what their job entails. The result? As it turns out, not everyone has a solid understanding of what these fashion pros really do. Hit play to watch the hilarious video above, and then shop Moda Operandi!

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
