Company Profile:

This web-based company is a respected online resource for successful, emerging and aspiring fashion publicists, designers, students, and educators to share tips, tricks, challenges and commentary about the ever-evolving role of public relations, marketing and social media in the fashion industry.

Launched in December 2006, this company quickly evolved into an industry must-read: a true insiders’ guide to the realities of the job. Featuring real-life examples of the power of smart, strategic PR, this company tackles everything from how to self-promote as a designer to which courses and programs are best for students looking at fashion PR as a future career. Engaging interviews with successful fashion PR practitioners, fashion PR agency news, and insider tips from fashion editors and industry pioneers provides relevant, inspiring and authentic content.

This company was created in response to the lack of a credible, honest, and engaging forum about fashion public relations online. It believes that by sharing ideas and engaging in relevant debate, we enhance our skills, and increase the value of community within our chosen field. We are also tired of the stereotype that fashion publicists are more concerned with air-kisses than credibility.
