We recently connected with Lunden Olin and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Lunden , thanks for joining us today. Getting that first client is always an exciting milestone. Can you talk to us about how you got your first customer who wasn’t a friend, family, or acquaintance?
My first major client was Tara Wallace from vh1 love and hip hop we did a promo shoot for the new season. I was super nervous what if she didn’t like me what if the clothes did fit but it was amazing and tara end up being one of my longest clients And from there is was like word of mouth. I went from reality stars to a list celebs like Jay Ellis from insecure and Coleman Domingo. It kinda of happened fast

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
One lesson I had to unlearn is EVERYONE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND AND NO ONE CARES. GET TO WORK. What I mean by that is when you’re on the job your focus should be about getting the job done. Not making friends and do not bring your personal business on set you are not the talent. GET TO WORK. But also it might feel like a friendship but still look at it as a business relationship. One wrong move and you can be fired.
Can you open up about a time when you had a really close call with the business?
One of the scariest moments for me is when an intern burned a whole in a ten thousand dollar dress that I had pulled from saks. She used an iron not a steamer which is a super no no . But now it’s my fault and I had to figure out how to fix it or lose 10k. Thank god I made my local cleaners my go to tailor and she made a miracle. So rule number one make you tailor you friend now that’s a friendship you definitely need.
