Community Events based Fashion Brand

ladi alexander By ladi alexander

My idea is to run a fashion brand centred around events and real life experiences. So this would be a brand that brings people together for discusssions , talent shows and sport related activites.

Camden Town Idea stage

This project is preparing for fundraising. Click Like to show your support, or Follow for updates on this project's journey.

This is a community based project with the potential of becoming a lot bigger due to the appeal. This would be an inhouse fashion project based in Camden with a huge focus on events. This is a great way to get young people involved whether that be organising the event, working on promoting the event, working on the day of the event. The type of events would be but limited to music based events as everyone loves music, so this would give talent the opportunity to show case themselves - dj's , artists , producers. We then have art exhibitions which allow us to showcase talent in the community that may also lead to art being purchased or people being inspired to make art. Artist can also colloaborate with designers in order to make clothing. We will give graphic designers & photographers the opportunity to develop their skills on these projects and within this space as I also have 7 years experience in managing and helping young people develop so we will be focused on this.

What we'll deliver:

  • Run 2 events a month
  • Give 5 new volunteers an opportunity to be a part of an event each month
  • Give up and coming designers and creatives in the area a place to channel their talents

Why it's a great idea:

This project will give people within the area the opportunity to feel a part of something especially the youth. Having produced over 100 events in Camden with none of them ever having any issues I have a lot of experience in bringing people together. I already have a space we would host the events and bring people together but the subject would be changeable. Essentially the key to events is to put things together with love and create a positive vibe so matter what type of walk of life you have during this period you can connect with other people, meet people and have fun while learning! Thats always been the essence and I can show examples of this if need be. Local Dj's can get involved and merchandise can be sold on the day from our designs at the events. What we would then create is a community of fans of the brand due to what the brand represents. We can also get some big names from time to time to give the event credibility which adds to the excitement for locals and travellers

Steps to get it done:

  • Securing the space , making the clothing , marketing the space for events , plan event and execute.
  • Outreach to locals and professionals , event date confirmed and event planning begins

I would just say I would love to talk more in person as text cannot describe how impactful this could be for the area and the different ways we can grow.
