In the fashion world, is it all about "who you know" or is it luck...or hard work? Many times I've heard that it is all about who you know. But for me, I believe that it's a combination of all three - but yes, mainly the connections and relationships that you build with people will determine how far you go in the industry.
As for luck and hard work...well, first of all, I don't believe in "luck". I believe that everything happens according to a Bigger Plan. Our attitude towards life, the choices we make, and being in the "right place at the right time" will put you on the path to success.
There's an article in the New York Times about Catherine Holstein, a Parson student who wasn't discovered in the usual way...read her story here. It serves as a reminder that "you just never know"!!
