Hey Katherine, I'm going to NZFW and I'm a blogger too so I was wondering if you had any tips for me?
Depends on what you are blogging about. If you’re doing show coverage, get it up in a timely manner or you’ll fall behind. If you’re doing lots of shows, wear comfortable shoes. Don’t wear anything that you don’t feel comfortable in, actually. Don’t forget extra camera batteries if you’re taking photos, and your laptop charger if you’re taking your laptop. Be friendly, you never know who you’ll meet. It’s a good time to network. Make your blog your priority if that’s what you’re there for - you want your work to be great, right? Don’t be the last to leave an after party. Don’t forget to eat. Take cash.
Above all, I assume you’re a delegate, but being a delegate doesn’t guarantee anything. Make sure you’ve requested invites to shows you want to go to because the people in charge of inviting get huge lists and if they don’t know you/your blog they won’t bother inviting you.
