Epiphany of a Fashion Designer

Since the year began, I have been driven to change my work habits and work on things that I should have a long time ago. One of those things I should have worked on is updating the good ole business plan. As I revisit each question business owners should be asking themselves, I'm thinking "how does this help my current fashion goal?"

So, I'm taking my old business plan which has essential business plan concepts and making it work for the fashion industry. I've researched fashion design business plans before and I'm either so lost on the legal verbiage written in them that my vision is blurred or I'm simply bored. Some are better than others, but most of them are already written in business plan format or they talk about how to get hired as a fashion designer and not starting your own line. None the less, I'm always left thinking "what are the questions fashion designers should be asking?"

When I was in school, I will have to admit I was a huge nerd (and not going to lie that I still am). I'm not afraid to say that especially when school taught me how my mind works and how I would break down my assignments to gain more perspective on my fashion design goals. When I think of my nerdy personality I only hope to help other fashion designers with their own fashion goals with my new series.

I will be posting my "how to" on my Examiner profile soon, stay tuned.
