on sunday we had our second trunk show. and while my parent’s house is not as swanky as the medina location was, it was a huge hit! my mom made a bunch of food and invited friends and friends of friends. my dad helped us to bring stuff in and “entertain” the ladies as they arrived. my father is very entertaining. we did very good in sales and it was nice and intimate. so nice that millie got to mingle with the clients and tell them more about MiUS. it was also great because she is so good with fashion pairings and could answer everyone’s questions.
what i like about the trunk show is it is not a direct sales party. yes, we do something nice for the hostess but you don’t need to feel obligated to buy anything. what the trunk show does is give women the opportunity to touch and feel the clothing and accessories. it is nice to know that buying “made in the usa” fashion can be affordable and have quality. it is nice to have a different piece than other people have. and it is really nice to be able to shop with friends…while sipping wine or sangria and eating yummy food.
remember…even if you don’t make it to one of our trunk shows…all MiUS merchandise has free returns. so you can order on line…and when it gets delivered, grab a snack and some wine (just please don’t get any on your MiUS goodies) and try on in the comfort of your own home. if it doesn’t fit or you don’t love it you can send it back. if you have questions on what will look good with it…send an email to millie@miuscollection.com – she is good with fashion questions and loves to help.
okay…here are some happy photos from our trunk show!

the trunk show was a lot of fun. if you are local to the cleveland area and want to have some friends over and host a trunk show for a different “girls” activity, please let us know! we would be more than happy to set something up. again, this is not direct sales, but it is fun and we appreciate our hostesses!! contact carrie@miuscollection.com if you would like more information on trunk shows.
