Ep. 3 - Flying Through Barriers

from Admittedly Ashley

I sit down with Elizabeth Solomeina, Forbes Business Council member, jewelry designer, and the Co-Founder and Managing Director of the largest platform of independent designers in the United States, Flying Solo. We take a walk down memory lane on our time in NYC to our collaborative shows in New York Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week, while we chat about the trajectory for independent fashion designers and the emerging paradigm shift in commerce. We remind ourselves that we entered fashion design solely for the love of our craft, and the challenges and barriers we face in our pursuit. The reality of the barriers to entry in fashion commerce for independent designers leaves us with an answer to keep our creations alive, shift the paradigm and eliminate that barrier to mass market shelf placement: to fly solo together.
