My second internship began today at Vivienne Westwood as one of the showroom interns. To say I was nervous this morning would of been an understatement, but my first day went off without a hitch!
Much like all first days, it involved a lot of showing around and getting to know people in the office. One of my main tasks which took up a bit of my morning and basically all my afternoon was unpacking the Anglomania samples which arrived from Milan. According to Nico, my boss, they deal mostly with Milan which was interesting to know, and since a lot of the office are Italian born, I got to listen to a lot of it today, I have a feeling I'll be almost fluent by the end..
After unpacking, I had to categorise it all and check it in, and due to the sheer amount of it that's why it took all afternoon. After this was done it was basically time to go, after being shown where to put the rubbish!
Due to their Milan Fashion Week Men's show being yesterday, a lot of people were out of the office, but it meant a quiet first day which aint half bad.
So far, the people seem super friendly and it looks like a really fun office. They're also 4 other interns to learn things a long the way with me which is quite nice, I like having someone to refer things back to.
I know I'm going to learn a lot and I'm really excited - a lot more to be said than Oasis, but we'll forget about that now; out with the old and in with the new! Report back tomorrow, ciao! (and it begins).
