Are you ready to tap into the mind of a fashion powerhouse? We had an invigorating chat with Angela Taylor George, the creative genius behind Alice and Trixie, who has been leaving her stylish mark on the fashion industry for more than forty years. Angela offers an honest recount of her transition from retail to entrepreneurship, shedding light on the importance of knowing your customer, having a product-market fit and the continuous evolution in business. Her entrepreneurial journey and her firing-the-man story is both motivating and enlightening, offering invaluable lessons for those ready to take the leap into entrepreneurship.

Angela's extensive experience with both wholesale and direct-to-consumer sales channels provides a wealth of insights for other entrepreneurs navigating these paths. We dive into the nitty-gritty of each channel, dissecting their profitability, complexity, and their role in a brand's success story. Angela, a staunch supporter of the retail resurgence, also emphasizes the role of physical stores in branding, offering actionable advice for e-commerce entrepreneurs looking to venture into retail. 

Our conversation takes a fascinating turn as we journey through Angela's experiences in the bustling NYC fashion industry. Her anecdotes from the New York City Garment Center are gems of wisdom for those just starting out. Angela also generously shares a free resource for fashion enthusiasts looking to create samples using outsourced help. We wrap up with a sneak peek into her upcoming book and a discussion on the importance of carving out a niche in business and fostering a sense of community. Follow Angela's inspiring journey across various platforms as she continues to shake up the fashion industry.
