How to Create Your Own Clothing Line

Do you dream of starting your own clothing line?

To be successful, you'll have to learn how to run a business, market your products, and keep your customers happy. Here are some basics on getting started in the clothing and fashion business.

Step 1: Create a solid and clear business plan. Your business plan needs to lay out how you intend to manage your clothing line. Try to be as realistic as possible when you write this. Remember, it's better to underestimate your profits and be pleasantly surprised than to overestimate your abilities and be disappointed. Think about these aspects: -Funding -Costs -Research(what is current) -Profitability(part time or full time business) -Legalities(partnership) -Employees -Choose a brand name -Design a logo.

Step 2: Design the clothes .This is the fun part for many people,but it's only 10-15 percent of the process! Make sketches, get feedback, and decide which ones will constitute your first collection. Pick out fabrics and materials that are cost effective and current.

Step 3:  Create a website to promote your clothing line. Make sure it looks very professional and presents your line in the best light. Provide contact information, in case stores or other merchants want to get in touch with you. If you want to give people the ability to buy clothing from your website, you'll need to set up a shopping cart and merchant account so you can accept credit card payments.

Step 4.Promote your line- advertise it. Tell people, put it in newspapers and magazines. Make people aware that it exists.
