I’m a huge fan of these small-scale fashion trend setters. They are doing it for the right reasons: pure love of style.

If you are a designer or considering launching your design career, contact the Ladies Independent Design League for support! You can also join Catwalk Genius, a website that allows you to sell your clothing AND get financial support from investors who ‘adopt’ you and contribute toward the funding you need to launch your own line.

Thanks to the internet and sites like Etsy and Catwalk Genius, designers have the opportunity to reach audiences from their homes or small studios, regardless of where they are. They also have the ability to make pieces on an as-ordered basis which means low overhead and fewer startup expenses.

If you’re contemplating starting up a small line or dipping your toe in the pool of designing talent, check out this site for resources on starting up a clothing line from scratch.

Indie Fixx.

Probably one of the best compilations of independent fashion designers and products anywhere on the internet. It’s one of the few sites I can hardly tear myself away from. It is literally chock full o’ fabulous stuff that I WANT.

She interviews a lot of the designers which is really interesting.  I love reading the stories of how these people get started in their business and how they working toward success.  I have the entrepreneurial spirit myself, so it’s always interesting to me to see how other people are doing it.

She also has great contests, and tons of great links. I find about fifty great things every time I visit, and if you love independent fashion, you’re sure to love it, too.
