Hi there!

I’m Shannon Lohr, the founder of Factory45, the business school trusted by over 500 fashion entrepreneurs since 2014. Every year I work with a new group of entrepreneurs to bring their fashion or accessories product(s) to life. And every week I send out free weekly advice for startup fashion designers. You can sign up for it here.
