The Society: How did you get started working in fashion?
Kelly Kirkner: I started out working as a make-up artist at a small store in St. Louis. I really disliked doing make-up, so I decided to go work for a women’s clothing store. After that, I just kept selling clothes and managing people who sell clothes. About a year ago I moved out to San Francisco and started working for a local designer in the Financial District.
