I have been such a busy girly the past few weeks I have completely neglected this poor blog but now the crazy end of year uni deadlines are out of the way, & a busy first week of summer holiday interviewing has been nailed I am going to get back on track.
So my first week of 'summer' (the weather isn't making it worthy of the title) involved interviewing in Manchester for an internship at a fab brand called Hervia... & I got it, woooo! So excited about this amazing opportunity!
So here's a bit about the brand...
The Hervia Group was set up by Oscar Pinto in 1993 with the aim to give clients the opportunity to acquire some of the best established design in the world & also be amongst the first to support the new generation of British design talent, producing exquisite clothing, jewellery & accessories. Named by Vogue as one of the UK's finest designer stores, Hervia was the first to stock debut collections by the late & great Alexander McQueen, Helmut Lang & Hussien Chalayan. The Manchester based brand aims to fill the design gap in the North West, support & promote high end fashion & British design talent to a worldwide clientele via the Hervia website. At Hervia you will find amazing designer collections carefully selected for their outstanding design quality & exclusivity.
The brand innovation has continued in recent years, with Hervia joining forces in 2011 with Adidas Y-3 to launch the first Adidas Y-3 flagship store in the UK. The store based in the Mayfair shopping district of London is the collaboration of Hervia & Y-3 to bring a fab selection of Y-3 products to the UK market.
Then in April, Hervia launched the re-branded Hervia store in Manchester city centre offering a hand picked selection of luxe sportswear designers such as Y-3, Alexander McQueen for Puma & Hussien Chalayan for Puma, with many more exciting designers being announced for AW 12!
The fashion world is completely buzzing over Hervia's unique concept stores! Niche, new, up & coming designers love the concept because they don't have to compromise their vision, they are allowed the ultimate freedom the present their collections to Hervia as they wish! This means that when the customer purchases the amazing pieces from Hervia they embody all the original excitement & innovation of the person who created them!
You can find out more about this exciting brand & shop the gorgeous collections at www.hervia.com!
So on Thursday I started an internship in the Hervia head offices on the gorgeous King Street in Manchester. Walking out of the office to Vivienne Westwood across the road, the fab Hervia store around the corner & the likes of Mulberry down the road it's like working in complete heaven for me... Definitely not going to be heaven for my bank balance! With so many exciting prospects, opportunities & experiences coming up for me I just want to say a massive thankyou to Hervia for giving me this opportunity... I can't wait to get back to the office on Wednesday!
