Lot of good advice from your respondents. Take what they say into account. The fashion industry has this thing about youth. If you are over 30 and you aren't a big name or haven't a "line" you are pretty much sunk. Education doesn't seem to be part of the equation. And why should it be, have you really seen some of the trash that is out there classed as "fashion"? Most of the big names over 50 made the cut waaaay back and in some cases are resting on their "laurels" or past successes. Because of all the bias in the fashion industry toward certain "types" I doubt if you will get heard. Check with AARP. They might have attorneys, or link you up with the ACLU. Maybe you could file an age discrimination suit. But good luck with that. It's hard to do. It's easier in the corporate business world to do that. Hard in fashion because it is so subjective about what "fashion" is. If you sent a picture with your resume and you are a full-figured person, I can practically guarantee it was tossed. Oh have you noticed Yahoo Answers are even on your case. They took the *** out of *** laude because of its sexual connotations in popular slang. Yup, a program is monitoring the site. You are not having a good life at this point. I apologize for all the idiocy out there. Have you tried to teach classes in fashion Design? That might be an alternative. Not what you want, I know, but it would keep you in the field. Possibly attending conferences and networking and making contacts with people in the fashion industry to get yourself noticed?

First there is a spelling test . . .
Ordinarily the Valedictorian is recognized and may be asked to give a speech.
