Keep this date in your calender 14 - 4 - 11 for the rest of your life, as I can finally say ( due to a Ms Adamou) that in-My-name is finally launched!
I will be having a small drink with said Ms Adamou tonight to celebrate ( I don't have money to do anything proper)
Well its taken along time and alot of energy to finally get where in-My-name is now, and I've had alot of help along the way (and hope I still will!)
So I would like to say a couple of well deserved THANK YOU'S!
Zita - for being my secret mentor and letting me do my work while I worked with you. Also for introducing me to Shelly
Shelley - for being an excellent pattern cutter and helping with the technical stuff
Dan - for letting me use your house like my own personal studio and your support and faith in me
Jay - for advice on my printed tee
Special thanks goes to :
Betty - for being another ear to talk to, giving some honest feedback and always believing in me.
Linh - for being a fab sister and helping sew stuff when I really need the help - and donating all your spare change
Dan - for being such a fabulous model and the face of in-My-name
The BOYFRIEND - the inspiration behind in-My-name and being positive towards my goal - also for going to be the first person to buy my full collection...at full price too....
The Buyer that turned me downed - ok, here's something you should know. One of the biggest factors of me starting in-My-name was because of an interview I had. It was with a the head menswear buyer of a company I was working for and it went terrible. The worst interview ever. So much so, that they pretty much said that I wasn't suitable for fashion...... And so I say THANK YOU to them. Because you made me realise that I'm not your typical fashion person, I never have been, but I LOVE fashion. It goes beyond love, its all I know and I think and breath and dream and shit about. I WILL NEVER LET ANYONE STOP ME!
My biggest thank you goes to LATOYAH of Lapremp.
I have so much love for this girl and honestly, I don't know how the hell I would of couped without her. You have inspired, cheered me on, encouraged and helped every step of the way. From the very first step you have been there, and may you always be there. May we have more photoshoots to come! From the deepest depths of my heart, THANK YOU.
If I have missed anyone, I'm really sorry, but I will add you asap.
Aww well done, you would have made it all on your lonesome anyway!! The label is great and will go from strength to strength! I'm glad to have been here at the beginning and will follow it all the way through!! x x x
