How to Become A Fashion Buyer (When You’re Not Sure Where to Start)

Apr 13, 2026

“I want to be a buyer, but I have no idea how to actually get a buyer job.” If you’ve thought this (or said it to a friend), you’re not alone. At Style Nine to Five, we hear this from fashion grads, retail professionals, and even marketers who want to move closer to product. Most […]

Style Nine to Five
Want to work in fashion marketing but don’t have Want to work in fashion marketing but don’t have fashion marketing experience yet? 👀

As a fashion recruiter, our founder @christie_lohr sees this ALL the time.

The good news? Your marketing experience doesn’t suddenly stop being relevant because it came from another industry.

And if you don’t have the experience yet, create something that shows us what you can do.

One of our favourite examples: we were once hiring for a social media role at Style Nine to Five and were deciding between someone with fashion experience and someone without it. The candidate without fashion experience created a mock Instagram feed for SNTF that was SO on brand, we could immediately picture what she could bring to the role.

We interviewed her. And hired her. 🙌

That’s what we mean when we say: make it easy for the hiring manager to picture you in the job.

This is exactly the kind of thing we dig into on Office Hours, which are moving into our new insider membership soon. Stay tuned. 👀

Save this for your next fashion marketing application! 💻✨
Working in retail but dreaming about a head office Working in retail but dreaming about a head office fashion role? Your current job can help you get there. 👀

One of the biggest mistakes I see is waiting until you have the title to start building the experience.

Want to work in marketing? Ask to help with social or campaigns.
Want to get into buying? Get closer to sales, inventory and product.
Interested in merchandising? Help with displays and launches.
Want to style? Volunteer for shoots, campaigns or store content.

Start building experience for the role you want while you’re still in the role you have.
