What is a Trend Predictor?

A Trend Predictor is someone who collects information, inspirational images and facts to predict the upcoming fashion for the next season. They look at past trends and collect research and data to what could possibly take over in the next year.

Job Role

Trend Forecaster's often travel to different cities to gather research and try to then predict trends from reports. They look at street fashion, architecture and sometimes just random things from the streets such as things in markets or shops. They see which stores are trending before they travel to a city and also do countless amounts of research on where they should gather ideas from when they arrive.
