Whether you're wondering what your dream fashion job typically pays, what other people in your same position make on average or how compensation fluctuates with seniority or gender, Fashionista's annual salary report is an invaluable resource, especially given today's economic uncertainties.
After surveying readers spanning various fields and backgrounds, we can reveal average salaries for roles ranging from assistant buyer to fashion director, from senior publicist to account executive, from staff writer to editorial director. You'll see how those numbers correspond with years of experience, location, company size, ethnicity and gender, and which fields have the highest portion of employees who make six figures. Our goal? To provide compensation transparency so that our readers can make more informed career decisions.
Who took our survey?
Over December 2023 and January 2024, we anonymously surveyed about 500 people working across the fashion industry, including retail, PR, design, media, marketing and product development. They work for companies including Marc Jacobs, Nordstrom, Gucci, Nike, Kering, Condé Nast, Hearst and more; some are self-employed freelancers.
Demographic-wise, the average respondent identifies as female and white, has a Bachelor's degree, lives in New York and works for a small private company.
