We caught up with the brilliant and insightful James MillIiner a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Hi James, thanks for joining us today. Folks often look at a successful business and imagine it was an overnight success, but from what we’ve seen this is often far from the truth. We’d love to hear your scaling up story – walk us through how you grew over time – what were some of the big things you had to do to grow and what was that scaling up journey like?

I Start Making Clothes In 2019 my First Brand Wasn’t as Good as I want it to Be I didn’t really have confidence in it so I took a year off. Then when Covid came I went to craft store and bought my first sewing machine my first piece I made was some jeans that wasn’t the best but i was working day and night and I got better by the day then I started to reach out to make other things like turbans ,bucket hats , etc my first artist to reach out to me for was UnoSavage now I’m styling a lot of artists @ around Atlanta

James, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

My biggest role model in the fashion world is Ian Connor I watch he come up as a kid and I got a lot of his pieces and he kinda was a big person in my eye in the fashion game

Where do you think you get most of your clients from?

I’m starting to work with a lot of people I listen too and it’s pretty cool I be backstage at they shows it’s a crazy feeling but My brand is for everybody anybody can wear it

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

My confidence and my craft the better I get the more people who wants to buy clothes and they ask me to be in their music videos
