intern tip #2- PRONUNCIATION!

   Another internship tip is to PRONOUNCE BRANDS CORRECTLY! At one of my internships, we were showing samples to a very important editor, and one of the interns mispronounced Givenchy (gee-ven-chy). INCORRECT! The editor chuckled and gave a death stare at the intern, and I felt so bad for him. Brand pronounciation is just simple fashion common sense. Heres a list of the pronounciation of most brands.


Givenchy ( he-van-she)

Dior ( de-or)

Chanel ( sha-nel)

Hermes (air-mes)

Prada (pra-dah)

Balmain (bal-man)

Balenciaga (ba-len-ci-a-ga)
