TAKING YOU ON A LOOK BEHIND THE SEAMS OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY IS WHAT I'M ALL ABOUT
HI, I'M MELANIE!
I take you right into the factory with me, showing you the secretive world of apparel manufacturing, from fiber to finished garment.
I have worked with the behemoths like Walmart and Target, as well as shaky startups that evolved into cult favorites like Nili Lotan and Hunter Boot - living and working in countries like Mexico, Domincan Republic, China, India, Taiwan, Egypt, and the Philippines where I got to see first-hand how the fashion industry operates.
Now my goal is to help YOU.
WHAT PAST CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY...
“My valuable takeaway from Melanie’s program was the personal connections with like-minded creatives working through similar issues. Together we learned from seasoned professionals and discovered pathways & opportunities to develop our own businesses.
”
“This course filled all the gaps in my industry knowledge that I was left with after graduating from fashion school. Melanie is like a production matchmaker, pairing students with ethical manufacturers for any product you can think of. Weekly office hours allowed space for brainstorming, problem-solving, and a great sense of community in the group.
”
“Taking this course has given me the confidence I needed to really make this startup happen. It's like having a partner there with you every step of the way giving you feedback and advice. Taking this course was exactly what I needed to boost me in the right direction and I cannot say enough great things about it.
”
“As someone with entrepreneurial experience, who has shipped and sold in their market firsthand, and has a business background, I can tell you I learned something every week. Starting a brand from the ground up is completely different from working for one.
”
“Melanie was able to help me scale my business and get wholesale ready. She continues to be my go-to sourcing resource as I grow my brand. Knowing that I had a strong supply chain to back up my orders helped give me the extra confidence I needed to start taking larger retail orders.
”
