5 Must-Read Books for Fashion Entrepreneurs
I have a habit of ordering books online and promptly NOT reading them. I want to read them, I plan on it, but I don’t always do it.
The 5 books I recommend in this episode I have read cover to cover and I believe every clothing, fashion, or acccessories designer would benefit from.
- One that’s just for fun — for anyone who loves fashion and/or old-school NYC stories (I’ve given it to dozens of clients over the years)
- Two for sewn product expertise, manufacturing truths & resources
- One that’s an HONEST journey of a very successful designer and the BS she had to put up wit
- And the last one is for every entrepreneurs on the planet. This one will save you a crapload of frustration – especially for those of us designer/maker types.
