Fashion Exposed Business Seminars



Fashion Exposed is a trade industry event and I've had the pleasure of being involved with Fashion Exposed for some time. From judging the Debut winners for 2 years and then launching my Retail Workshop during the Sydney event earlier this year.

Due to popular demand, I'm hosting the same Retail Workshop (with a few updates) for the Melbourne event next week, however this year, I'm part of a larger business seminar program. With a fantastic round up of speakers, these seminars are aimed at the business makers behind fashion from emerging labels through to large business chains.

Discussing topics like the new season Trends, Sustainability, Mens retailing, global retail trends and of course my workshops "Trade Secrets" - a comprehensive workshop discussing branding, marketing, visual merchandising, customer engagement and social media aimed at the boutique retailer.

The seminars run over 2 days - Sunday 29 August and Tuesday 31st August. Tickets are available on the Fashion Exposed website.
