Feel The Fear & Do It Anyway w/ Andrea Pitter of Pantora Bridal Dreams In Drive

Meet Andrea Pitter - founder and creative director of Pantora Bridal and the founder of Trap Fabricks - an online fabric store that is dedicated to  independent and urban creatives by providing access to exclusive textiles.
You're going to learn how Andrea was able to take the dream she had as a kid of being a fashion designer and truly make it a reality! What started out as a hobby soon turned into a side hustle and then a full fledged business!
Andrea shares the roadmap she took to carving out a space for Black-designed bridal to shine in an industry where Black bodies are underrepresented and excluded. We touch on the ups, downs and the uncertainties - and why Andrea always chose to BET ON HERSELF and her ideas. Andrea even gets real about how her business was impacted by COVID-19 and the steps she and her team took to ensure they were able to return to business.
