Interns


Today I am contacting my universities career services to see about 2 things. 1. If a marketing student or students would want to come up with a proposal for a marketing stategy for my business. It would be great expierence, they could put it on thier resume, and they could see how their plan works in real life. 2. If a graphic design/web design student would want to take on revamping my website. Maybe as a project and once again it is great expierence and a resume builder. If you know anyone who is intersted please let me know.

New Website

So today is my first day to blog. Until about 2 months ago, I didn't even know what a blog was. Yesterday I joined a great site to sell my designs online! Yay! It is http://www.courtneybrookedesign.etsy.com/. Please go check it out. It is a great way to have a custom dress at a fabulous price. You can see some of my designs on the left.

I was recently featured in a fashion show for emerging designers. To see my dress and the info on the show go to http://supimacotton.blogspot.com/.


Normally I only design and make couture wedding gowns, but I am really excited to promote my brand and make all women feel beautiful!
