Just Off 7th Ave!
is a multifaceted Fashion Public Relations Effort, of and in support of Independent Fashion Designers at all stages of their development.
We facilitate the introduction of Independent Designers to resources engaged in related efforts and industries, supporting them in the full breath of the establishment, development, marketing, and promotion of their business. We partner with professionals and businesses to support our member designers offering them not only a range of services, but a range in service providers and myriad opportunities ensuring their ability to define and distinguish their brand. Our strategy not only supports the Independent Designer, it supports the industries that support the Indie Designer.
- Aspiring - Designers with Ideas, sketches, ambition, who have not engaged the resources to create an actual prototype or product.
- Novice - Designers who have created prototypes, but have not developed a collection.
- Emerging - Designers who have produced a collection but need help establishing their brands.
- Burgeoning - New designers who have gone through all the steps of creating and branding their ideas and are actively pursuing wholesale/retail positioning.
