So How Did I Get Here? with Sam Lax
Education
This week I was joined by Brent Wilson - founder and director of fashion and lifestyle brand of his namesake. Leaving school for full-time work to become an electrician at the tender age of 15, Brent’s career took an unexpected turn when he volunteered at Sydney Fashion week. In our chat, Brent talks me through the lessons in life and business that he’s learned to date, and how these have helped him build his brand and successful made to measure suiting service here in Sydney.
In our chat we talk about the process of suit making, how Brent got his start in fashion, his love of superbikes and cars and what it takes to run a successful business in the fashion industry today.
Check out his website if you’re in Sydney and in the market for a new suit and keep up with the tailored perfection at his instagram @mrbrentwilson
