Vanessa has been part of the Startup Fashion Week family since the beginning in 2014.

She also talks about her success of getting published in notable magazines and shares how others can do the same.

Startup Fashion Week (SFW) has been helping emerging creatives and small businesses since 2014 and has also become the world's only multi-city fashion week. Launched by Jodi Goodfellow, the trailer provides insight as to what led her to create this disruptive fashion week concept. She also mentions some of the incredible accomplishments made by SFW over the years. The SFW FRONT ROW podcast will provide exciting content from industry leaders, startup entrepreneurs, alumni and visionary creatives who will explore the world of fashion in conversation with Jodi. Therefore it only seemed fitting to name our podcast after the most coveted position at a runway show - FRONT ROW! For the Startup Fashion Week FRONT ROW Podcast you won’t need to walk a red carpet or RSVP but we do encourage you to subscribe so that you can get VIP access for updates on new episodes.
