On Thursday I spent the day working on the samples area. The week before I had spent a few hours packing away the luggage and hanging out the samples for SS12. The rest of the SS12 samples were boxed up so today Kirsten asked I pack away all the AW11 samples and hang out the SS12 samples in book order. This took up my whole day, the items being packed away were to be labelled up for sample sale, the items to be hung took a lot longer as to get them in order of the line book took precision and I wanted to make sure it was in the right order for Kirsten as I know she is very particular about things being in order.

I have had a lot of chances over my time at Animal to review the product in the line book but it was a really good chance to see the bought items for SS12 and see the different materials and prints used. As I will be assisting with the etail buy next week it was good for me to understand what look and styling the design team have gone for with the products for the season leading into AW12.
