What to do now?
So the sample line is finished, which took months for me to finish, and I think it came out pretty well for a first line. Next, is to see how far I can actually push this little line. I spoke to a manufacturer who told me they were interested in manufacturing the sample line but is concerned about who will sell. He asked if any sales agency would be interested. I spoke to the vice president of Sales for Members Only, whom I used to share the floor with at my old job who gave me some good advice.
I am going to make a wish list of the stores I want to get into, which for right now includes some boutiques in NYC, as well as other department stores that could be a long shot, but also could be a perfect fit. Next I am going to start organzing an event for the next fashion week, and most likely add more pieces. So come September for Spring 2011, I will be completely ready for a launch/fashion week showing.
Also, I was told about the Pool Tradeshow in Vegas, which is August, and I am thinking about participating. It would be an awesome opportunity to exhibit my stuff where there are buyers from all over the country. I will have to see what I want to do, because of the amount of moneyit will cost and all the logistics. Etc. So if anybody has any advice or interest in working freelance as a sales person, or knows anybody who is, let me know. Keep posted!

Lookbook
So the plan is to shoot a lookbook this coming Monday. I finished up my live of samples, I have 27 pieces, all of which are going to be shot. The shoot is going to take place at a lounge called Alibi and shot by photographer Larry Lowe, which I am really excited about. Hopefully it comes out amazing, I will post them once they're completed. Next is the press, I want to get these shots as much publicity as possible. So, if you know anybody who knows anybody have them get at me! I would really appreciate it. Can't wait to blow up
