Picture this: You are at a fashion show for New York Fashion Week. You watch as models show off the clothing of their designers in all their glamour. Later, you find out that one of the designers was a 13-year-old girl. Sounds like a made-up story, right? No 13-year-old girl could design clothing well enough for it to be part of New York Fashion Week, right? Wrong. Isabella Rose Taylor showed her Spring 2015 collection at New York Fashion Week when she was only 13.

What got Taylor to this point? Well, in an interview, Taylor said that her parents always encouraged her to follow her dreams and told her she did not have to wait to be her own boss and do what she loved. Taylor also said that she had been interested in art from a very young age, and at the age of 8, began incorporating “mixed media” into her fingerpainting. She also attended a summer sewing camp where she fell in love with the art. After the camp, she began making clothing for friends and family, which ended up becoming a full on business. Taylor used social media, specifically Facebook, to grow her business. Her Facebook profile “garnered the attention of local news outlets and eventually major national programs including the Today show.”
Taylor went on to gain more recognition and success. For example, she was invited to speak at Dell’s annual gathering of 800 leading female entrepreneurs. Today, Taylor still has success due to the company she started at age 13.
Thanks for writing this story about Taylor! Hearing how she was able to chase her dream and work towards becoming her own boss from such a young age is very inspirational. It’s great to see her making such an impact in the world of female entrepreneurs, too – strengthening her network of connections to help her with future successes.
Her story is incredible and proves that age does not have to stop achieving big dreams. It’s amazing how she turned her passion for fashion and art into a business so young, gaining recognition through social media and eventually showcasing her work at New York Fashion Week. Her drive and success are truly inspiring, especially for young entrepreneurs
