I am trying to get together a list of some timeless fashion accessories/clothing: For example the quilted Chanel handbag, and the gold chain prints (on scarves etc).Can you help me think of some more things that have been around for a long time and never seem to go out of fashion? Many thanks in advance.

Looking for insights into the newest fashion, apparel and art style trends for surf. Helpful sites would have samples of art and garments as well as forecasts for future trends.

A dear friend has a dream of being a fashion designer. She completed a teaching degree and then went on to do a couple of years of some sort of design qualification but had to stop for personal reasons. Is there something she can do to get a foot in the door somewhere and progress towards her dream? I’m an engineer and don’t really have any idea about the fashion business.
Still, the classic problem of not being able to get a job without experience but you can’t get experience without having been in a job for a while is stopping her from getting a start. Unusually(?), she can’t stand the concept of working in retail (for example, a dress shop), although I’ve suggested that might be helpful.
Is going back to uni a prerequisite? Is there a way she could do something part-time and not take 10 years to get somewhere?
I think she’d appreciate any sort of insights or suggestions.
Thanks.
