The world of fashion blogging

One of the challenges as a small, start up fashion designer is getting your product into the grasp of mainstream customers. That's where blogging can really jumpstart exposure of your products through your readership.

To be more specific, my line of "kiu D" clutch purses currently listed on Etsy, were featured on today's blog at Daily Diva Dish.  How exciting!


Although we are in the midst of the winter season still, spring is around the corner and the editors at Daily Diva Dish were quick to point out how my floral prints on my clutch purses help them gear up for the upcoming season itself.  Thanks so much Editors!

What an inspiration.  I immediately began working on more clutch designs today.  I dug straight into my numerous boxes of fabric and by day's end tomorrow, should have an entire collection of spring-themed purses....

Stay tuned!

Wolf What?

Linda Dress

This month has been quite an exciting month so far.  kiu Designs was featured in the February 2010 issue (second issue) of the brand new online magazine, Wolfram.

It was such a short-lived high getting approached by the layout editor about featuring my work in their magazine. Their site utilized Adobe Flashplayer for their spread and it's actually quite well done.  The lifestyle pages entertain through articles and wonderful photographs.

I was asked to included a brief bio of myself.  My first thought was, brief?  Oh my, was that possible!  But I managed to squeeze in a bit about me and my work.

It featured the lovely Linda dress and my clutch purse that is now all sold out, the Silky Flowers clutch purse.  You can read more here....

The entire magazine featured other Etsians, some of whom I actually love! It's so cool to be part of this special cohort.
