Tips For Creating a New Fashion Brand
As a child, I was confident that I would be a rich and famous fashion designer when I grew up. If pink nail polish, and designer jeans were the prerequisite, I was surely on my way. Color blocking was not an option in those days. Black shoes were the only staple, so I knew it all. In my first meeting with the fashion design high school, I was quickly shut down because of my inability to sketch. “Well, you would need to know how to draw and sketch,” the middle aged admissions counselor smirked. He then embarked on a fifteen minute lecture as to why my inability to do the latter would make fashion designing a rather formidable task. “Ouch!” My budding ambition, oversized ego, and teenaged self esteem, felt my pain in unison. “Imagine what skills I would need to become a lawyer,” I rationalized to myself.
Fast forward to the world of design software, computers, outsourcing and the internet. I am sure that the inability to sketch wouldn’t be frowned upon as such for fashion designing. It is never too early, or too late to develop your talent and innate ability as a fashion designer. Feel free to indulge in and create your new fashion brand if you are 12 or 55 years old.
