Introduction


The fashion industry of today has come a long way. Internet blogs, diffusion lines, collaborations and streetstyle have created a medium in which fashion, trend and design have all become open to interpretation. To pay a fortune for runway designs now almost seems pase’. To pay an accessible price for easy, interesting pieces with quality design feels modern and intelligent. Jane Sheperdson’s design concept of easy, laid back pieces with attention to quality and detail lends itself incredibly well to the modern consumer mentality.  In this current retail atmosphere, the possibilities for WHISTLES to expand into the right International markets could therefore hold great opportunity.
