My long time goal of experiencing visual merchandising has been accomplished. Even though it was only a short time, and my first time, I’ve learned a lot and hope to do it again. At my previous job at one of America’s popular retail clothing store, Love Culture, I got to experience visual merchandising. My main position was Sales Associate, however, the manager was kind enough to let me assist in visuals. Since it was my first time, it was a huge honor. Even though I had no experience and a lot to learn, I don’t think I did a horrible job. I did a variety of dressing mannequins, wall displays, and table displays.

I’m still learning and hoping to get another chance to continue visual merchandising. There is still a lot for me to learn and understand. I believe I am better at mannequin displays, only because I’ve had more experience with putting together outfits. However, I still need to remember to make the displays for cohesive and put together like a group.
