A message from me ...

Hello everyone... I really hope you enjoy the Fashion Industry Network. For years, I have been developing fashion sites and this is my first attempt at creating a method for members of the fashion industry to communicate directly with one another.

The idea of this site is for fashion designers to meet fashion designers, production managers to meet production managers, stylists to meet stylists, pattern makers to meet pattern makers etc.

You are welcome to promote your fashion industry product or service. HOWEVER, please try not to make it sound like a commercial. The goal is to make legit business contacts so that we can keep the world of fashion spinning. Again, you may promote your business as this is actually the purpose of the site. Please do not be too pushy with your attempts to solicite business.

If you see people abusing the site with non relevant information, please let me know and we will try to quickly remove their posts. We truly need your support to help keep this site beneficial for everyone. Please understand that as a user of this site, you are part of the team. Lets all work together to keep the site working as originally intended.

You can view my main fashion industry website at Apparel Search.
