    Which reminds me, an author recommendation for the open minded: Pedro Juan Guti!rrez

    ?

    ....will do.....but may be a long wait as we are still at the very ' Low budget/ High creative' stage in our business.:) We save the serious money to spend on CAD pattern cutting systems, staff and increased production capacity....oh... and the new website is being built at the moment.

    There will be a trip to Vegas in Feb for a trade show though and we'll tag on Miami and LA so we can visit our stockists. It's going to cost a serious wedge mind.

    We are struggling with our 'smallness' at the moment and are working to the max of our capabilities and have too much fear to really max it up so have turned down some really big (but very scary/risky) stuff recently.

    You never know...what we do now is just for now/today and we are very surprised this range has had such longevity. Usually the knock offs kill things off after 6 months.

    I am researching the swimwear at the mo but finding the production is proving really hard. Found one in Brazil (as per Viva's suggestion) but it is really expensive..they would have to retail @ £70 each.

    The rest of the resort range (which exists only in my head) is pretty straight forward.

    I think we'll move forward being less 'of the momet' and more niche product but sell worldwide. There is such a buzz overseas for eu or UK made goods at the moment too.....not in the UK tho'.:o The UK market generally prefer things more cheap and cheerful which means not made in EU or Uk.

    Couldn't see any dresses so I assume it was the 6 pack we were looking out for.

    Sorry about the accident in your avatar - were you able to return to a normal shape afterwards?
