WHY A STRONG "BRAND IDENTITY" IS IMPORTANT

Image
We cannot overemphasize the fact that fashion is a business that requires a precise strategy for its success. In running a business, many factors come to play and we cannot neglect or downplay one for the other. One of the vital factors responsible for the success of any business is "a strong brand identity" Brand identity is the visible element of a brand, that identify and distinguish the brand in consumers' minds. I'd like to highlight a few things; Your brand identity is not the plan, it is the guide that keeps your brand together.

Monochrome red is always a good idea when in doubt or you could try wearing onesies like dresses and jumpsuit to save you the stress of styling separates.
