Suit Up – Out to Lunch – It’s New Orleans

September 3, 2015 Out to Lunch Comments Off on Suit Up – Out to Lunch – It’s New Orleans

Most businesses grow successful over time as their owners find more efficient ways to make and market specific products. It would seem counter intuitive to open a business based on products that change constantly. And products you can’t even imagine, that have to be re-invented up to three and four times a year, based on the season. That’s exactly what the fashion business is.

Peter’s guests on tis edition of Out to Lunch today have opened fashion houses in New Orleans that make and sell handmade clothes and accessories.
