Sometimes, as a fashion creative All you need to do is to broaden your horizon. Go out, do cool stuff, change your environment Expose your mind to healthy content. And see how much more productive you become!

If you don’t constantly check out famous fashion brands, little fashion startups and creatives that inspire you I don’t know what to tell you.

The first Black woman to present a collection at Rome’s celebrated fashion week, AltaRoma is Deola Sagoe. This happened in 2004. Deola remains the leading lady of Africa’s Haute Couture.

As an entrepreneur in the fashion space... If you don’t have a business plan in place That brand will flop. Your business plan should include a statement about your clothing brand, a general description of your products... and a strategy for how you plan to sell them.

The key to success is having a clear brand identity that resonates with your target customers, staying authentic to that identity... and knowing how to communicate it to your prospects.

You don’t always have to hop on new trends to promote your products and services. Sometimes, just stay with what has already been proven to work.

One day, we would talk about how video marketing could change the way we see fashion marketing.

Reviews, case studies, social proof, testimonials These things can help you build a POWERFUL brand. Ignore them at your own risk.

How to get a testimonial from your clients... . . . . Ask for it.

Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There's no how-to road map to style. It's about self-expression and, above all, attitude." —Iris Apfel @desireeiyamaofficial #africanfashion #lhaudefashion
