The business side of fashion...

So, fashion is not all about the glitz and glamour. There is in fact a lot of hard work involved, and there is definitely a business side to it! So many people think that fashion is a freely creative venture. It is not.

I had to do a business plan for an outfit from my range. I actually made a profit in this "business", so that was a good sign!  I chose to use my corseted jumpsuit, as I felt that this was the perfect combination of couture and ready to wear.

The business:
Sole ownership
Pattern maker and seamstress
From home
Capital of R50 000


Below are some images of my advertisement and my business card:

Website for Bianca Jane

I have officially set up my website for my designs. It was an incredible process, and it was fun.

I used the Wix site, as it is very user friendly for beginners. This website is a good stepping stone from college to the working world, and I am very glad that FEDISA gave me an opportunity in my curriculum to do this.

My website is "bianca jane designs" - click on this link to view the site.

Unfortunately, images will not load, but please take the time to view my website.

Until we meet again
