FASHION CROWD SOURCE PLATFORM Name Ideas

THE WORD OR WORDS SHOULD BE CLEVER. A PLATFORM NOT A BRAND.

BRAND is a fashion-specific crowd-funding and crowd-sourcing platform that enables aspiring and established designers and brands to launch a new product, provides transparency to suppliers and turns consumers into fashion influencers.

The platform will give designers direct access to all aspects of the supply chain needed to turn their idea into reality--design, pre-production, production, distribution

The platform will serve the businesses that help produce fashion--giving artisans, fabric mills, factories and distribution companies access to new design talents and existing manufacturing markets, and providing them an unprecedented amount of transparency in the process.

The platform will serve existing brands, allowing them to partner with new talents, discover new resources, establish new direct connections with consumers, and open up new revenue streams.

The platform will serve existing retailers large and small, allowing them to gauge consumer demand for a product well in advance, giving them specific demographic information on potential customers and enabling them to purchase year-round (not just in the traditional market weeks).

The platform will serve consumers by giving then a direct say in what kind of clothes are in fashion and available to buy. BRAND will achieve this by allowing for direct communication between consumers and designers and brands, giving consumers the opportunity to directly invest in new talents and letting consumers buy new fashions at close-to-wholesale prices.
