Life of a Fashion Intern 2 - Karl Plewka

Long time no blog, but interning rather took over my life for a while. I have now finished my work placement with Karl Plewka, but for the past 5 weeks I have been running errands, picking up and dropping bits off for photo shoots for magazines such as Vanity Fair, Vs. and Ligature magazine. I must have has thousands of pounds worth of clothing and accessories with me...luckily no muggings!

  

A few of the bags I had to carry...

 Karl seems to do alot of shoots than involve underwear and gloves. What Katie Did, is a lovely boutique that sells vintage inspired under-garments. I Have been there so many times in the last four weeks I feel like I know the people in the shop. I love the name as I used to read the What Katie Did books as a child....and it helps that my name is Katie.

 One of my more glamorous days involved a La Perla press day. Lots of lovely, yummy cakes and cocktails, not that I felt much like eating them infront of models wearing the latest collection.  La Perla is a high-end underwear and swimwear. Their stock was beautiful and I would love to own some!

This is Karl's gorgeous Miniature Schnauzer, Gus. He is one of the highlights of my internship...a bit sad!? 

And that is that! My work placement for a fashion stylist is over. I wont miss running round London with massive bags and sore feet, but it was a very interesting experience. I recommend doing a few work placements before you set your heart on any job!
