What you’ll do
- Pitch and write fashion news, features, interviews, trend reports, and shopping stories for print and digital platforms.
- Cover local, regional, and international fashion, from emerging designers and homegrown labels to major fashion houses.
- Translate runway trends and industry developments into accessible stories with a clear editorial point of view.
- Research stories thoroughly, conduct interviews, and fact-check copy to maintain editorial accuracy.
- Work with editors and teammates to develop compelling fashion content.
- Adapt stories for digital audiences through engaging headlines, search-friendly copy, and social content.
- Produce short-form video content and assist with basic video editing when needed.
- Attend relevant launches, previews, fashion shows and industry events—both in Singapore and overseas.
- Build relationships with designers, brands, publicists, and other relevant industry contacts.
- Manage multiple assignments and deadlines while maintaining a consistent editorial voice.
- Contribute ideas for recurring columns, special issues, and editorial and commercial projects.
