Start Leading in Fashion Buying.
Master the real-world commercial skills that turn ambitious fashion professionals into confident, promotable buyers.
Hard Work Isn’t Enough in Fashion Buying.
Most fashion buyers are thrown into high-pressure roles without the commercial training they need to succeed. That’s why talented people end up overwhelmed, underprepared, and stuck in support mode—and why businesses lose time, margin, and momentum in the process.
So, if you’re working in fashion buying or merchandising but feel stuck between doing the work and trulyunderstanding it, you’re not alone.
But here’s the good news…
You can learn these skills, apply them on the job, and show you’re ready for more—without waiting years to ‘figure it out’.
Build the Skills You Need to Lead
Hello ! I’m Elisabeth Mac Hale, and I’ve spent over 25 years working across both design and buying for global fashion brands. I’ve hired, trained, and promoted buyers at every level – and I know exactly what separates those who thrive from those who plateau. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to help bridge the gap between education and industry with practical fashion buyer training that actually works.
Through my online fashion courses and consulting services, I help fashion professionals:
- Understand the complete buying cycle from concept to consumer
- Master commercial skills like margin management, OTB planning, and sales analysis
- Think strategically about range building, supplier relationships, and business impact
- Build confidence in decision-making and leadership
This isn’t surface-level theory. It’s the insider knowledge you need to become the buyer leaders fight to promote.
