Why does a fashion designer need a portfolio website?

My name is Corrado Manenti, and one thing I often see is talented designers presenting themselves to buyers or the press with an Instagram profile as their only calling card. Don't get me wrong: Instagram is essential. But not enough.

A portfolio website is your digital home. It is the space where you have complete control over the narrative, where you can present your work in the way you prefer, where a buyer or journalist can find everything they need: collections, lookbooks, press kits, contacts.

When you send an email to a buyer at a department store or an editor at Vogue, the first thing they will do is look you up on Google. If they find a professional, well-designed website that tells them who you are and what you do, their perception of your brand will immediately improve. If they only find an Instagram account, you will appear to be an amateur.

"Your portfolio website is your virtual showroom. It must convey the same care and attention that you put into your garments."

Portfolio vs E-commerce: which one do you need?

A portfolio website It is ideal if you mainly sell B2B (to buyers and showrooms), if you do not yet have a structure to manage online sales, and if your primary objective is to make yourself known and contacted.

A e-commerce You need it if you want to sell directly to the end consumer, if you already have production and logistics in place, and if you want a sales channel that is always active.

The good news? The two are not mutually exclusive. Many brands start with a portfolio and add e-commerce when they are ready. We design the site to be expandable.
