"Never forget that only dead fish swim with the stream"  

This quote to me is very inspirational, it's reminding me to not go with the flow, go against the flow. It's telling me to break out of my comfort zone, do something interesting, unique and spontaneous. I don't want to be a sheep and follow the crowd, it wont get me notice, recognized or out there. 

In the fashion and Textiles industries especially, this quote is something to defiantly live by. This is because the textile industry alone brings £21 billion to the UK economy.

*£241 million is Marketing

*£205 million is Media

*12,000 clothing business's

*156,000 People employed in the 

Textiles industry 

*20,000 people work as designers
