Philadelphia Fashion Incubator's new outpost in Fabric Row, Queen Village is showcasing 15 current and alumni brands tied to the incubator.
Previously housed at Macy’s Center City, the PFI prompted a move to Fabric Row, Queen Village earlier this year, due to the retail chain’s store closing. The new location is historically significant, according to executive director Elissa Bloom.
This year’s roster consists of Rosa Agliata, Renee Antoine, Assim De Gabriel, Monshell Reyes, and Elmira Vandenberg. To be eligible for the one-year program, candidates must have been in business from anywhere from six months to five years-plus. They need to have products, a logo, a site, sales and an understanding of who their customers are. Created to be more MBA-like than how-to, the PFI teaches entrepreneurship and the business of fashion.
PFI is also planning the inaugural Fashionconphilly, a fashion event in November that will feature panel discussions about such subjects as fashion law and technology in relation to fashion entrepreneurship.
