Clothing line is the new Gold Rush of the Millennium.

Fashion Innovators reveal how to start your own.

Interest in the world of fashion is at an all-time high. Famous designer Tommy Hilfiger just recently introduced his reality TV show on CBS called The Cut, and Tyra Banks’s America's Next Top Model just finished its third season on UPN, while Bravo’s Project Runway is gearing up for its second season. I think it’s definitely safe to say, fashion is hot, and it keeps getting hotter. Starting a clothing line seems to be a vehicle to unimaginable wealth. The fashion craze that was initially ignited by the overwhelming and groundbreaking success of Fashion Company, FUBU and Russell Simmons's Phat Farm Clothing, has sent shockwaves of money making potential throughout American communities. And like the miners of yesterday, today’s prospects including rich celebrities have set out to stake their claim.

"We watched as new Fashion companies like Sean John and Roca Wear took center stage and generated staggering amounts of money year after year, greatly surpassing the $100,000,000 mark with ease each time!" No longer willing to take a back seat to all the action, thousands are dreaming about getting involved. According to the Wall Street Journal, the fashion industry is a $180-billion industry and the fourth largest one in the world. 


Today, the question asked by many aspiring clothing designers from all over the world is, “how do I start my own clothing line?” Authors Jay Arrington and Michael Harper have answered this question and many more, in their best selling series of books, The Official Step by Step Guide to Starting a Clothing line, Volume 1. This is a remarkable in-depth work that puts all the necessary tools right at the reader’s fingertips. Some of the highlights of this book include finding overseas manufacturers, financing, product distribution, and insider information previously unavailable to the public. Volume II, The Reality of Owning and Operating Your Own Clothing line, takes a detailed look into the world of fashion. It goes beyond the glitz and glamour to give the fashion entrepreneur a true understanding of what it takes to make it in this industry. The third book is, How to Effectively Sell Your Clothing line to Retailers. In this book, the designing authors educate the reader about the various aspects of selling their clothing line to retailers. Arrington and Harper created their own nationally renowned clothing line from scratch, and bring over 6 years of experience, research and valuable insight to this subject.

"Arrington and Harper have created a real-world manual to starting a fashion business for any apparel designer. The Official Step by Step Guide to Starting a Clothing Line is a comprehensive handbook for fashion entrepreneurs, and having the inside track from two successful designers who started from the ground floor is absolutely inspiring!"

—Julie Ann Patterson,

Fashion Design Chair, International Academy of Design and Technology, MI.


Their walk-through guides are currently available through Baker and Taylor Distribution, Amazon.com and The Author’s website Startingaclothingline.com.
