Paris Week Adventures
November 5 - November 12, 2023
Have you always wanted to visit Paris? Would you love to learn about French fashion from the people, brands and stores that create it? As a bonus, would you like to take a walk on the Champs Elysees and explore some of Paris’s other famous attractions like The Louvre, Versailles, The Arc de Triomphe and The Eiffel Tower? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions then we are excited to let you know that Banson NYC is venturing across the ocean to Paris and will be offering our Paris Week Adventures twice in 2023 - the first program is in March (possibly during your Spring Break) and the second one is in November. They are designed to give high school and college students a chance to experience the fashion industry in Paris by themselves, with their friends or with a relative. The programs will each be 7-days long with 4-days of industry appointments, a fashion show, visits to the Musee Yves Saint Laurent and the Palais Galliera and even a 2-Day Paris Museum Pass to explore the most famous attractions the city has to offer. Students will stay in a deluxe hotel in Paris’s City Centre neighborhood with their friends/relatives or they will be matched up with other participants of the program.

In-Person and Virtual Fashion Camps For Summer
Banson NYC is excited to offer 2 In-person Fashion Camps for high school students in 2023.
In-Person and Virtual Fashion Career Camps:
These camps will teach the students the fundamentals of the fashion industry by providing an insider's perspective. Although the visits will be on ZOOM for the virtual camp, they will be of the same quality and content as our in-person visits. We will design each camp to spotlight a wide variety of careers ranging from merchandsiing, media, design, styling, buying, blogging, public relations and production to name a few. Each program will also include interactive activities like a sustainable design project and tips on successful interviewing techniques and appropriate attire to wear. The in-person camp includes an Assortment Planning Seminar to learn more about the buying process and the virtual camp has a Master Class in Beauty with your own personal beauty box. We will end the program with a panel discussion from former students on how they landed internships/jobs and advice they have for making your college choice the right fit for you. Each camp is a week long. The in-person one is 5 full days and the virtual one consists of 18-20 hours. We accept applications on a first come, first served basis.
