Résumé du livre
With his clothing line available in Nordstroms, Sears, JC Penney, Dayton Hudson, Target stores, Army Air Force Post Exchanges Worldwide, and scores of other major retailers, Anthony Mark Hankins has taken the fashion world by storm. His exciting designs for everyday women's clothes regularly sell-out during his appearances on the Home Shopping Network, and represent the culmination of a determination to achieve and a limitless excitement about what he's doing. From the first dress he designed and sewed at age seven, through his education in couture in Paris, to his daring efforts to showcase his designs before reluctant executives, Hankins has always forged ahead, no matter the obstacles.Fabric of Dreams is both Hankins' personal story and his exhortation to others to pursue their ambitions. Inspiring and galvanizing, this is a great American success story told by a remarkably appealing young man. Showcases the best example of a new generation of charismatic and highly successful African-American entrepreneurs. Anthony Mark Hankins appears at least twice monthly on the Home Shopping Network. Tremendous cross-promotion potential with America's largest retail stores. Book will be featured on the hangtags of Hankins' entire clothing line for a six-month span. Anthony Mark Hankins will donate a portion of the proceeds to the United Negro College Fund. Debbie Markley is a well-known correspondent for People magazine with good contacts in the magazine and newspaper worlds.
