Career Profile: Fashion Start-Up

Bobbi is the Owner of Traveling Chic Boutique, a women’s clothing and accessories store based out of a 1963 Airstream. Bobbi walks us through the start-up and growth of a clothing boutique, from purchasing inventory at NYC wholesalers to renovating the store and putting on trunk show parties and attending trade shows. Although the start-up can be grueling, the self-employment pays dividends and Bobbi tells interested students to get out there and network as early as possible.
