2. Fashion industry is often considered women-centric and stereotypes men? What's your opinion?

Very Simple, cater to the masses.

Florence Institute Of Design International

Pierre Jeanneret. I love his woodwork manipulation and the architectural structure of his designs. Never mundane with his creations

Find a lane and dominate. It could be furniture, blinds, art, consultations and ever organisation.
