Hello LinkedIn community ! Today, I want to discuss a challenge every fashion designer and brand will inevitably face: managing failure and success. These two elements are closely intertwined, and how we navigate them can define our journey in the fashion industry. Did you know that about 90% of fashion startups fail within the first few years? It's a revealing statistic, underscoring the challenges inherent in the industry, yet it also signifies that 10% thrive despite these hurdles ! Failure is not the opposite of success; it's a part of it. Each setback is a lesson, an opportunity to grow and innovate. Take Christian Dior, for example. After his gallery closed during the Great Depression, he went on to create one of the most influential fashion houses in history. His persistence redefined fashion and inspired generations of designers. Success, while desirable, brings its own set of challenges. It often comes with increased responsibilities, higher expectations, and the pressure to sustain and exceed achievements, many fear success due to these added pressures. Let's consider Coco Chanel, who faced numerous obstacles in her early career. Despite initial setbacks, she persevered and eventually became one of the most iconic figures in fashion, revolutionizing women's clothing with her timeless designs. ???So, how can we balance these factors in our fashion careers? ?? Embracing Failure as a Learning Experience: Each failure is a chapter in your story, not the end. Reflect on what went wrong, make adjustments, and keep moving forward. Every misstep is a chance to refine your designs and approach. ?? Redefining Success: It’s not just about financial gain or runway shows. True success embraces fulfillment, impact, and personal growth. Celebrate your small victories, whether it's completing a collection or receiving positive feedback from a customer, and don’t be afraid to aim high. ?? Building a Support System: Surround yourself with mentors, peers, and loved ones who can offer guidance and encouragement. Remember, even the most successful designers had help along the way. Collaborate, seek advice, and stay connected with your community. Whether you're stitching your first garment or launching your latest collection, remember that failure and success are both parts of your journey ! Embrace them, learn from them, and let them drive you toward your dreams. Your unique vision can transform the fashion industry, one design at a time !

Meg Strachan is building Dorsey, ?a jewelry brand that focuses on lab-grown stones and diamonds. In 2020, Strachan couldn’t find any investors – but it was a tale as old as time, she was ahead of the curve. Lab-grown diamonds now represent over 17% of the overall diamond market. Today in Feed Me, she discusses what people get wrong when building a team, why she believes Substack is the future of fashion marketing, and when she decided to stop talking about how hard it is to build a business. https://lnkd.in/emzekksx

“Looking for a man in finance” is dead. Next up is “Is somebody gonna match my freak?” ?? If you don’t jump on this trend, you are missing the chance to prove that your brand is FUN! What is the idea? It is all about showcasing funny and self-ironic habits that evolve around your products. (Hint: They NEED to be relatable.) ?? Here are my ideas to get you started: Bag Brands: Some people treat their luxury bag like a newborn baby. With the holiday season upon us, why not show someone booking an extra airplane seat just to ensure their bag has a place of honour? Automotive Brands: A scratch or dirty rims? A no-go for a car lover! Show someone who’s overly protective when cleaning their car, obsessively checking every detail and using the tiniest sponge in the world to get rid of every speck of dirt. This concept works for BBQ brands too! Make-Up Brands: Just using lipstick? Boring. Show someone using way more products to create the perfect lips than necessary—several lipliners, lipsticks, lip gloss. You name it. Fashion Brands: Highlight someone who spends extensive amounts of time in front of the mirror, checking their outfit from every possible angle before stepping out. Jewelry Brands: Play with the funny situation of newly engaged women always finding ways to bring their engagement ring into the spotlight.
