If you're interested in Good Business, starting your own company and the thought behind making the stuff we wear, listen in...

Simon is a chap I came across via LinkedIn (booo) and we immediately hit it off. He's a respected brand consultant and serial clothing entrepreneur. He's taken a kicking and done very well. Life!

We chatted very unguardedly about making clothes, real life branding, good marketing, fatherhood, politics (nicely) and his recent re-marriage. Exactly the kind of open chat we're after.
