Westwood Day 2

I survived my second day! Today I learnt what the selling book is, which is basically the book that gets given to all the buyers that come in to view the collections and it includes details such as the sizes each garment comes in, the materials, the colours and styles it comes in, and most importantly the price.

Myself and another intern called Agatha had to organise it in a certain way so it looked professional for the clients. We also had to add the correct selling prices which were GBP, Euros and Euro Plus. I'm not quite sure what Euro Plus is, and I totally forgot to ask, but will check tomorrow. Due to the sheer about of garments there were and due to having to do this three times with the difference currencies, this took up quite a lot of time, but I quite enjoyed it, as I got to know the selling book, especially as I'll be working with it a lot over the next three months.

However as this wasn't my supervisors selling book, as they're are different supervisors for different parts of the collection, I went back to my supervisor (Nico) towards the end of the day to make appointments with the clients which he couldn't get hold of on the previous day. So the rest of my day involved making calls. I also learnt how they schedule their appointments, and the colour codes which go with each department.

Thus far, I'm really enjoying it. I know this because I'm not counting down the hours till the end of the day; I'm enjoying getting to know all the people at the office and learning loads. Of course a lot of Italian was used again today!

See you tomorrow!
