AdsIt is meant to be a glamorous life as a fashion, textiles or accessories designer. You design some very exciting collections, get noticed and either carve a name for yourself or go freelance for the global or UK high street. However there are a lot of business and contractual issues that need to be interwoven into your everyday business life. You need to know how to go about them so you get the best deal and your client gets the designs they need, when they want it and how they are used to getting it.
So what about confidentiality, copying, inspiration and infringement in the fashion world? How can you make sure that you are on the right side of the law when it comes to influence and when you have got a fashion winner? And how will you make sure that you make as much profit as possible using all the business acumen you need?
This essential Own-it event will help you through the fashion business labyrinth and help you to understand how to go about business in the fashion industry and profit from your creativity successfully. There will be plenty of opportunities to network and ask questions at this event.
