11 Jan Expert Advice on Pricing in January’s Zoom Masterclass

On the 10th January Fashion-Enter Ltd’s (FEL) founder, Jenny Holloway, provided her expert advice for a Zoom masterclass on Profitable Pricing: Strategies for Accurate Costing and Pricing in the Fashion Industry.

From materials, labour, shipping and sales, to brand target market, there are many elements to consider when pricing your garment. Jenny discussed all this and more in FEL’s free masterclass series, these monthly sessions really take a deep dive into the business of fashion and provide excellent support and advice.

Open to all, 16 attendees included a mix of individuals at home as well as FTA students based in Islington and Haringey. FEL masterclasses combine seminar discussion with a PowerPoint presentation and are always led by individuals that have decades of industry experience.

Attendees were invited to discuss their projects and ask questions throughout the session, these ranged from recommended unit quantities to working with the micro factory and the on demand printing service. Feedback at the end of the session was fantastic, with many saying how helpful and informative the masterclass had been and how Jenny had explained everything clearly.  

Feedback included:

“10 out of 10, I have a great understanding of costing, deliveries and protecting yourself as a business.”
