Analysis of Article
The introduction can be expanded and the following categories could all be worked on:


 * 1) The background info could be expanded
 * 2) Spelling and punctuation
 * 3) All information was not exactly accurate
 * 4) Narrative and Point of view
 * 5) Themes

When describing how the retailers interact they werent very descriptive and didn't give as much information that could've been addressed. Also the definition of a "Buyer in Fashion" was not clearly explained or broken down in order to exactly understand what a buyer in fashion does as there job. Many things needed to be updated as to the amount they make in a year now and the education that is needed in order to become one.

According to "The Role of the Fashion Buyer," buyers typically specialize in one type of merchandise such as women's dresses. However, in a smaller retailer, a buyer may buy for a larger, less specialized range such as women's casualwear which may include shirts, skirts, pants, and jackets. The larger the retailer, the more specific the product area is for a buyer. Large companies that have a broad range of products will often have separate buying departments for menswear, womenswear, and childrenswear. A buyer at a smaller retailer may buy name brand products while a large company buyer may have the opportunity to be involved in the design and development of the products. A buyer with experience will travel to learn new fashion trends and to visit clothing suppliers.[1]

Assistant buyers play a smaller role in the selection of merchandise since they are still gaining experience. They may help senior buyers with basic aspects of retailing. Assistant buyers may also be in charge of orders and shipments, supervise sales personnel, keeping records, and dealing with customers who are returning or exchanging merchandise
