In order for fashion to progress, we have to always be willing to invest in someone or something new and embrace risks, regardless of the economy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Running a fashion business takes the heart of a good gambler. You're always dealing with new things. And there's no guarantee that anything new is going to be successful.
Yes, fashion adds more risk, but you don't have to have as much of it to keep the business rolling.
I'm a risk taker and I've always been like that, especially when it comes to fashion.
Some say the economy means that you have to persuade people to invest in clothes - to buy less things but more expensive things. I disagree - invest in jewelry, or a house, maybe, but not in fashion.
As I began to take risks, leaving my very comfortable and secure job and taking this first leap into fashion, every subsequent risk became easier to take because I began to see the kind of opportunity and excitement that risk-taking offered.
We don't need fashion to survive, we just desire it so much.
Fashion is never in crisis because clothes are always necessary.
Being one step ahead of a fashion trend is not so important to me. What matters is to always forge ahead.
Fashion is capitalism, and it will be fixed by what the market demands.
Fashion is not an investment. If you wear a dress and don't get many compliments, you won't wear it again. It's not like buying bonds.
