Meet Factory45 for Fabric Sourcing at TexWorld USA
July is here… which means TexWorld USA — one of the largest fabric sourcing trade shows — is quickly approaching!
And registration is now open HERE.
This is a free opportunity for designers like you to not only see hundreds of different fabrics in person, but to also take advantage of the free fashion education happening at the show.
And I’m going to be there on July 24th!
I would love to meet you in person, so here’s what I’ll have going on:
Tuesday, 7/24 at 3pm | Financing Your Emerging Fashion Brand: A Look at New and Traditional Options.
Moderated by Nicole of StartUp Fashion, I’ll be part of a bigger conversation about financing your startup fashion brand.
I’ll cover the ins and outs of financing your production through fashion crowdfunding. Syama Meagher of Scaling Retail will talk about collection development and building a business based on cash flow and capital limitations. And Juliet Obodo, founder of FRWD Startup Solutions, will talk us through options available to founders who suddenly need capital to cover orders or unexpected expenses.
It’s free to attend but you need to register HERE.
Tuesday, 7/24 at 4pm | Independent Designer Meetup
Directly following the panel, join us for an afternoon break to connect with fellow designers and chat fashion business.
Come hang out, have a drink, compare notes and share stories with other entrepreneurs like you.You must be registered for TexWorld to join us, but it’s free to sign up HERE.
TexWorld is so much more than just a “fabric show” with a whole slew of free education resources available at your disposal.
It will also be my first night away from the baby, so you know it has to be good : )
If you can make it, I’d love to see you there!
You can register for free HERE.
