So as you saw, finished my trend boards AND created 5 items for the tribal mountsineer trend!!
Think that's enough for today!

Off to watch Jeremy Kyle!!
Been looking at what trends I will be using to design my range(s), I have decided on three trends which are... Cadet Academy, American Classic and my favourite Tribal Mountaineer!
I got some silhouettes ready and have created a trend board for each have a look...


I know there are a few things to tweek and add, such as the pantone ref but they are pretty much ready! :D
I tried to choose trends that are all different, as it is a new brand I don't know what would sell so going for a wider audience and see what works.
Just imagine an 8 years wearing a military jacket or a knitted roll neck with a wolf on the front... how cute!

OH and in case you didn't realise my range is to be launch in autumn/ winter 2013! Woooo

AAAAHHHHHH!!!!! JUST BECAUSE I KNOW HOW TO DO SOMETHING, DOESN'T MEAN I SHOULD HELP EVERYONE ELSE BEFORE DOING MY OWN!!!!!!



That is all....
Been brousing on the Topman website and found some perfect printed t-shirts and jumpers!





Too cool for school is a PERFECT slogan for the ages my range will be for!! :D def know I will be having these kind of printed tops within my range.

Have also started to look at spring/ summer '13 trends and if it works I am going to choose 3 of the trends and create a range for them. That way as it is a new brand I can experiement and see what sells and what doesn't and then the following season, expand on best-sellers.
Had to present my idea yesterday... wentt ok BUT got to change a few things.

I have to think of a new name, as it's not quirky enough! I not very good at thinking of names!! LOL and because of VAT I am going to have to change the ages to 8- 14/ 15 as any older and VAT needs to be added... kind of annoying as my research showed 10- 16 years of age would have been perfect!

Then again this is probably why it hasn't been done before...

First stop think of a new name AAAHHHH!!!!

Soooo felt like I should be doing something and wanted to get stuck in...

Have a look at this beaut!

The swing ticket for my range!! It is the exactly look I wanted... Inspired by the Topman limited collection and I wanted it to look stylish and expensive. Personally I feel it achieves just that!
I wanted it to be square as I find in all high street store, the more expensive the product the squarer the ticket, but Topteen will still be affordable!

Organised myself a timetable so I know what I am doing and when... hopefully I'll be able to stick to it and everything runs smoothly!
