Personal Statement for MA International Fashion Business: Buying and Merchandise

Hi,

I am writing a SOP for the MA International Fashion Business: Buying and Merchandise Management at MMU. This is my dream College

Can any one help me on it and provide your value feedback pls - very urgent

Thanks in advance

Fashion, to me is a form of self-expression. The clothes you choose, the accessories you wear with it describes you as a person. It gives you an identity of your own. Fashion describes you as a person. Fashion brought renaissance to the mankind. Fashion has enhanced a different view to this world and people were keen now to look through Fashion's eye in each and every step in their life. Fashion has come a long way through man from his clothing over tree leaves to leather jackets.

I started my Career as a Fashion Merchandiser in Link Up Textiles and had been working over there for the past 13 years. Throughout my career I have learned about merchandising and different methodologies to carry out my work in an effective manner. For Merchandising, the basic knowledge is updating the status often and keeping us alive all the way. Merchandise planning helps the buying team to get the products on-time. The major part in merchandise is to give right production in right time. Timely intake of products/ promoting the products to reach the correct customer must be a major work for a perfect merchandiser.

MMU has the best Fashion Buying and Merchandise Management out there. I know this would be a great place for me to get my degree doing something I loved just doing as a child. MMU is a place where I can get the best industry leading experience, educational experience, growth and self development. I would be very grateful to learn from such outstanding leaders who can give me insight as how to survive and thrive in this desired field.

I want to go on and do great things which I think and I believe that with MMU behind me I can do them all. I want to work as a buyer for TESCO and maybe even own and run my own boutique shop. I think I can do all these things with my industry experience and with the knowledge that I will be obtaining by attending "MA International Fashion Business: Buying and Merchandise Management" course in MMU.

I believe that travelling and studying overseas will bring a significant transformation in my outlook and perspective as a whole. I will like to gain firsthand knowledge and experience in different methodologies of working and expose myself to the rich cultural and ethnic diversity, thereby increasing my international exposure and work experience, along with honing my technical knowledge and skills.

I will consider it as an honor if I could study at Manchester Metropolitan University in UK. I am confident that I will live up to the high standard set by your prestigious university. I hope to hear from you soon.

Your writing is good. I enjoy reading. But I have a few details to discuss, here:


and


As your reader, these sentences are too vague. Could you give one or two specific details (explaining the GREAT THINGS and perspective as a whole) ?

Thanks

Hi Eddies

First of all thanks for your reply and for your appreciation .

Great things which i meant here is that i need to be fashion buyer.
If you feel it as very vague can u let know how can i change it so that i can be more interesting and meaningful

Waiting for your valuable reply and comments

thanks

Hi aruljothi...,


This writing is more than great, but it is good to talk through your experience rather than showing statement. All of us have had some event, some experience and so forth, but no body has perfectly same.

To have this, you have to really dig. Try not to settle for "I need to be fashion buyer" Why do you need to be fashion buyer or to be in this field ? Why does it complete you?

All in all, this is that I only can help you as the reader. Good luck :)

Thanks.
