I was reading a forum the other day in which designers and tailors were discussing how they were often reached by people who wanted to start a clothing line. All these professionals sounded frustrated because they were either expected to work for free or were given a favor when the client “gave them work.” Many people seem to be drawn to the apparel business, this is a common trend that is going on now. I thought I would write an article on how to make this conversation easier for both parties. In Part 1, we are going to discuss the important questions to ask oneself before starting a company, and the most common types of businesses. In Part 2, we’ll talk more about the clothing manufacturing process, since many factories are also bombarded by these requests.
