The Fashion Brand Clinic Podcast - Season 2 Episode 010 - Sell out TikTok launches with Katie @ Katharina Lou
Welcome to another episode of The Fashion Brand Clinic with me, Elizabeth Stiles!
KT Mildren launched ‘Katharina Lou,’ her fashion business in 2021 after having lots of spare time (& creative ideas!) in lockdown.
Since then she has grown a cool community online of fashion followers and has also become best known for her hit Olly Rose dress!
Starting with bold feminine pink pieces which were all made to order, since then it has evolved into a more grungy aesthetic.
KT shares her tips for pivoting, creating sell out launches, how to find the right influencers for your brand and how to get out of a negative cycle which so many founders face.

In this episode we discuss :
The 80/20 rule: 80% of your sales will come from 20% of your products so ‘If it’s ain’t broke, then don’t fix it.’ If you have a best seller, relaunch it in different colour ways and styles, don’t try to always reinvent the wheel.
The importance of going to see your manufacturers in person: you get things done quicker, you can build relationships, you can check that they fit in with your values and they are likely to work harder for you after you’ve made the effort to come and see them.
The power of taking a break and space from your business: sometimes the most productive thing you can do is pausing and taking a holiday to reignite the creativity in you and help you get out of a negative cycle.
