I've started my own Fashion brand 8 months ago now, yet to get a collection out due to set backs and covid, and I can safely say, everything he is saying is absolutely true. Self Discipline, lonliness, 24/7 round the clock work... your perseverance is the straight and narrow
How is it going now? Started getting orders?
Have you got your fame or this business and started getting profit? Please reply
Hi
I am not even 13 yet, and i know that people see me still as a kid. Kids say they want to be an astronaut, ballerina, a princess, but they are just kids.
Let me tell you I have not had a perfect life. I know other people have it a lot worse, but after everything I’ve gone through, I know by now, I have to do it. While I can, I’ve got to do it. One second you can be with your best friend, and the other second, your best friend passes away. One day your playing monopoly with your family, the other your mother is diagnosed with cancer.
I promised my best friend that we would build a fashion empire. We were children obviously, foolish, young, still innocent. She passed away. I couldn’t be there with her. I moved schools, when my best friend needed me I ran away like a coward. I want to do this. I have to do this. I need to do this. For my friend, for my promise. I always say I never break a promise, and I mean it.
I can only think how hard it must be for you but I hope the best for you
You got this bro 💯
I feel like running a business in the fashion space is even harder because not only does your business rely on your entrepreneurial skills but your creativity will also make or break you
Thank you so much! This should be basic class material at any fashion school!
+BET Barcelona Thank you so much.
i thank you personally. this is precious! I needed this class. A collection of realistic notions and truths about startup, also a motivation that a person need in order to dive into fashion global market. Finger Crossed now ;)
Thank you,thank you, thank you Mr Imram Amed!
Thank you so much to BOF for taking the time to create these videos. What priceless opportunity to learn and educate ourselves from people in the field! Big big thank you!
Thank you for the "militant-discipline" about running one's own clothing business. This was such helpful information to get us idealists into the realist outlook on fashion industries.process of "getting there".
This video is a literally A GEM 💎 I can’t believe I stumbled across this 💛 thank you for this 🙏💛
THANK YOU Imran, this is a great series of talk and I am always inspired by you! I have started reading BOF since 2011 and I am happy to see BOF has grown so big. I enjoy your talks ( I also attended your talk last year at LCF) and really appreciate the contribution you have been making in the fashion industry. This series of talk is a useful guidance to me and people who want to set up their own fashion business.
Thanks imaran for this lovely introduction of a fachion business it not easy but nothing is easy until u break rules thanks
Thank you so much BOF and Imram Amed for this inspiring lecture. It really motivates to pursue my own business, and I hope I will manage it with all these advices.

I'm not even in this industry but the speaker is amazing and makes me want to watch more.
It's crazy how I just ran into this video. You are amazing and these details are thorough! Thank you because I needed these lessons
You are an excellent speaker! Really smart content!
Thank you
Its good because this advice can be applied to other business types with a small amount of adaption.
I'm at the infancy of starting my own fashion business and I'm happy I came across this. It's almost like it was fate. A big Thank You.
Getting creative in lockdown, thanks Imram! I'm excited to see what the fashion world is going to be like post covid
This may be the best content on youtube ❤, thank you for all the infos
Thank you Imran for your insightful and practical words. Luck in your projects!
Very helpful!! Thank you for sharing.
This is everything I need to learn in my life right now. Thank you so much, Imran! 😭👏🏽
Sure ?
Thank God ! Thank-you for starting this series !
Thank God i found this i need it so much! i'm studying my first semester in fashion design and i feel like sometimes i struggle managing my time and facing frustration. I'm on time to do something about it and i ready to learn.
Thanks for uploading this very very helpful video
I love your video so much , it's really mean to me because now i'm working to build my fashion business.
Thanks a lot, have a great day !
Your video is exactly what I need to know...thank you so much
So good and very helpful for fashion designers...Love that..
Great content. Very helpful. Thanks
Wow amazing video. Ty for this wonderful and informative presentation. Understanding things from a business perspective and getting out of the artisanal, atelier room mindframe.
Wonderful!! So helpful!! Thank you!!
Every single thing he says is true. Every single word. And we have a CMT business and no one with 10 units gets looked at. UNLESS they show you they are worth it, and serious. And most are flash in the pan dreamers and here today gone tomorrow. 99.9% will not make it. Most lack the talent, and if they have talent are terrible at business. The rule is YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL. Then work from there.
This is crazy. Coming here after graduating in business and hospitality but I love fashion since little. IDK whether I can still do this...but I'm really want to try this out. Maybe working under people first.
Thank you Imran for your video. It is so useful
Wish you were around before i wasted 2 years in a private college (FIDM) with a debt i will never be able to pay off. I DEMAND A REFUND :(
I was thinking about going there.. 🤔
Star Babe Don't. You can learn more on youtube than you ever will at FIDM.
Ahhh, I want to go there too! Can you please send me your email so I could possibly ask you some questions about it?
well, i hope this video uploaded 4 years ago, before i go to fashion major college...now, Im out of fashion world...lol...but this video series really need to be watch for whoever wanna work or having own brand in fashion business world. this is great. :)
Thank u so so much...i need more learn about running bussiness fashion ....i lost job and i have little tiny graphic design and fashion is my pasion...this video gives me new knowhow so munlch..thank u B.O.F
hey Irman, great talk - I really appreciate what you're doing and how much effort you put in BoF and educating fashion industry. This is also one of my goals and as a fashion-tech blogger - I see BoF as a great benchmark. So thank you :).
I find this video interesting and worth sharing with young designers (I live and work in Poland and we have many talents here). The one thing I can't agree with is the 1st statement: that starting a fashion business requires a lot of money, actually it really depands on creativity. The question is: do I need staff, do I need PR agency, do I need to hire a graphic designer or even a programmer to start a business? The fact is that in today's world many things can be done for free or for small amount of money. It doesn't differ that much from making a tech start-up (believe me, I'm a startup co-founder as well). All you need to do is to be and think AGILE. In today's world we have internet, cheap apps, free knowledge. So all a designer needs to do is to be creative and lean. And he/she doesn't need to make a full collection! 1-2 piece[s] is[are] enough to try a market. It doesn't mean that he/she doesn't need it at all. But it's not that bad (here is my AGILE fashion manifesto: geekgoeschic.co/2015/06/03/agile-fashion-manifesto).
Everything else that you say is true and I think it's quite universal: starting your own business is always hard. You're always eating glass and you're always alone in that. (but it's also really exciting and challenging and you learn 10x faster and 10x more than while working in someone's else company! :)).
Greetings from Poland!

Dzięki za motywujące słowa
Thank you for good information.!
THANK YOU! AWESOME INFORMATION. I viewed this in perfect timing.
+Aysun Taylor thank you
Amazing introduction. really helpful and meaningful
Thank you so much BOF and Imran Amed for sharing these amazing and inspiring lecture. I am starting my own fashion business and these lectures have been very helpful. I had the opportunity to study my bachelors degree of Fashion Design at Parsons and could've been more proud. But I have to agree with you, at school they only focus on teaching you about the design and development but not about what goes after the creative part.
Thank you for this video it really helped me a lot :-)
I like what you have said. Thank you 🌻
Amazing information. Thank you
all very good points!!!!
I permanently follow your interesting and productive videos, which is so close to the point, including exactly detailed and important steps the person should take or take into consideration.
Thank you.
I believe one day we meet and have an interesting conversation.
By that time i will have my own big company in fashion field.
This is all critical and extremely valuable information. Sir, thank you thank you thank you.
The point of military self discipline really hit hard cause I'm currently working on it cause i never do my work on time but this is a very very great video knowledgeable and Motivational at the same time....
I agree but most important is : YOU NEED TO HAVE FAITH IN YOUR SELF!! And never give up!!! Wish you luck! I'll hope that one day l'm gonna be the most famous designer in world. Xoxo
I went to school for fashion design and dropped out* it was the attitude
But the truth is that there is a LOT of plus soze folks who need better options so intrested in getting into that again.
Great content ! This should be a MOOC !
Well done! thank you, soooo f-en true!
So insightful, explained and so on. Most important you are a good narrative, no arhhh ,,, ummm,,,ammm,,, thanks

Thanks for your feedback Juan
As a student studying fashion at Parsons School of Design, this is one of the best videos to ever hear. Business first, designs second.
Should I attend FIT in NYC or build my own business using family relatives (aunt with a sewing factory, cousins with BA in business) ?
Nice job
thank you for this video. I studied business but since I was 15 I wanted to establish my own fashion company. now I'm facing this first problem : I can't find a designer to work with. Who had this problem. Any advice ? Thanks in advance
what are the basics equipment you need to start a small scale fashion manufacturing unit please.. apart from sewing machines ? thanks please help..
I need some advices from you. you have good ideas
YES! THANK YOU Imran!
+Jackie M thank you
Hi BOF, I'm a big follower of your channel, I would like to ask you if is there any video focused on Branding, or maybe a deep dive introduction into Branding for Fashion Business. Thank you.
Hi Juan, thanks so much for your feedback. There is a video on creating brand awareness here: www.businessoffashion.com/articles/basics/how-do-you-create-brand-awareness Since this video is from 2015, we suggest you also explore some of the articles more recently published on branding on our website. All the best, The BoF Team
I’m 15 years old and i really want to start a fashion business one day but i can’t draw. Do I have to be a designer and be good at drawing if i want to start my own fashion business?
baby bear · thank you 🙏🏽
Being able to communicate your designs to others and knowing some of the technical sides of fashion will help. So really, as long as you can clearly tell people what your vision is and you're really committed to starting a business not being able to draw perfectly is the least of your worries. I hope this helps:) I'm an aspiring designer as well so I know how it feels. Goodluck on your journey!
Samuel Ang thank you
Shareef Davids I can help you with this. Send me a message and I will explain how you can most certainly start your own fashion business!
@@samanthapr2009 Hi Jane, Im 18 and also have aspirations to create my own fashion label and was wondering if you could also share some advice to me as well
I have an investor already but am sort of careful to take his offer because I really dont know the wires on how to run the line
why i just found out this video.... i was planned to start a new business for fashion... n trying to set up this business before 2020... im now 35 years old i hope its still not to late for me.... 😔😔😔
its never late just do it
Dr Michka thank youuu!!!! hugs
It's never too late. All the best of luck and we hope our other resources will be useful to you, too. You should definitely take a look here: www.businessoffashion.com/articles/start-up-school
Hope to see some successful fashion brands from the comment section! Good luck everybody.
Im pretty sure i already started one …geesh
Oddly enough back in the Philadelphia area in the mid and late 70s Bof what's another word for effing someone ... when I saw the big BOF letters I couldn't believe it.... just too funny
Do you need to go to college for this? If yes what would you major in
Is he teaching at college ? If so i would love to know which college that is
I would love to be a fashion designer but i probably would not be able to run a business lol . Any tips for finding a way to be a designer for another business?
What kind of fashion would you like to design? I am the opposite, I want to run a business but would prefer to hire designers
Thank you BOF and Imran Ahmed for this wonderful video..but I have a query...My question is if I want to get into St. Martin's or Parsons or London college of fashion,do I really need to have a background of fashion? Because the course I am pursuing right now has nothing to do with fashion but has something to do with business... So I would be glad if you could consider this question and reply to me.
Thank you so much Patricia C
Hey I wanted to attend parsons too. What are you studying there?
Did you apply as a transfer or is it a bachelors degree ?
sorry for the wrong name spelling
Everything you said is so true. Especially #1 & 3. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Cheers!
+SBA strongbody Thank you for watching
