Can you tell us about a time you’ve had to pivot?
As a fashion designer, there was a time when I faced a tough challenge in marketing my new collection. The designs were different from what most people were used to, and it seemed like not many would be interested. However, I decided to take a brave step and promote the collection in a unique way. I used social media and fashion blogs to share the story behind the designs. To create excitement, I organized a special event like huge exhibitions in USA, Dallas always gave me a great positive energy. As soon, my clients started liking my dresses Despite the odds, the response was amazing!
People loved the creativity and originality of the designs. The word spread quickly, leading to a lot of inquiries and online orders. The risk paid off, and the collection received praise from fashion experts and magazines. This experience taught me that taking risks and staying true to my vision can lead to success, even when it seems tough. It encouraged me to keep being bold and authentic in my designs and marketing strategies.
