BK Fashion Week(end): REHCY VONNE Showing in NYC!!!

That's right my peeps, I have been invited to show in Brooklyn Fashion Week!!!
Out of hundreds of applicants they picked REHCY VONNE!!
It is an amazing honor and opportunity with worldwide press coverage.
The dates are 29 September-2 October.
REHCY VONNE & REHCY will be shown together on opening night the 29th September.
This is eco friendly/innovative night.

BK Fashion Week(end) does a charitable exchange with designers from Africa, whom will show on the 30th. To top it all off, this year they will be bringing designers from all over the world to show their collections.
Whoo, so exciting! (Blade reference, ha ha!)

I am very excited and grateful and... completely freaking out!!!
So much work to do to!! Especially since I had not planned on having the next collection completed until February of next year! So I'm going to be working my butt off until showtime!

In the next few weeks of posting, I will keep everyone updated on my
55 Days to BK Fashion Week(end)

TIP OF THE DAY: BABY GOT BACK

When sketching a new design, try sketching the back of the garment first. Designing this way adds a new & different twist when you feel as if your designs are getting a little monotonous.

Creating an Online Store Made Simple

Erater.com

In my quest to setup the online store for REHCY VONNE, I discovered many useful and free tools. PayPal, with its shopping cart, options buttons, and easy payment setup helped tremendously. 

Ecrator.com makes creating an online store quick & simple. Best of all, Ecrater is free!! However when working with this site, there a few slight difficulties. I.E. returning things back to form after changing them, I still can't figure out how to do this.

Etsy.com provides another simple option to setting up your online store. Already having thousands of customers, adds a just a little bit of a jump-start to your store. :-P  Etsy does, however, charge a small fee for using their services. $0.20 per item listed and a 3% of the price of each item sold. 

Shopify.com also seems like a good site, but this one charges monthly & transaction fees. Bonus being that is offers more options than Etsy or Ecrater.

Hope this helps you in setting up your own online store!

Rehcy Vonne's open now!!
