Interestingly, the young designer follow  unconsciously  to the letter Anna Wintour advices and I think they are worth following: STARTING YOUR OWN LINE DOESN’T GUARANTEE SUCCESS Ultimately, this apply to anyone who want to start their own business.

Progress Trap

A  progress trap  is the condition human societies experience when, in pursuing  progress  through human ingenuity, they inadvertently introduce problems they do not have the resources or political will to solve, for fear of short-term losses in status, stability or quality of life.

And get back in the trap next week.
