say about working with UDGN.
"Tare helped me bring my brand to life — literally. From the earliest stages, she guided me through shaping my identity, refining my vision, and building a brand that truly reflects who I am. With her support, I went from sketches to a full production run, including manufacturing advice, sampling, and sourcing. She also connected me to the right platforms — getting me stocked at Wolf & Badger and featured in press like FashionUnited.
Beyond all that, my sales grew. I saw real traction, real results. Tare doesn’t just consult — she partners with you to make it happen.
Seeing UDGN now makes complete sense. She’s been doing this work behind the scenes — and now, more designers will get the chance to rise."
"Tare was one of the first people I trusted with my brand — and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made. From the beginning, she believed in the vision behind Elanway. She helped me build meaningful partnerships, including with Quap Magazine, secured celebrity placements for my designs, and supported with fashion shows that elevated my visibility.
She also opened doors to retail connections that helped me start stocking my clothes in the right spaces. Beyond all the strategy, Tare really poured into me — and since then, we’ve grown from client and consultant to genuine family.
Now that she’s created UDGN, I know even more designers will get the kind of support that makes dreams feel possible."
"I had the vision, I had the designs, but I didn’t always have access. Working with Tare changed that. She connected me to industry leaders who helped me refine my direction and build stronger brand presence. Through her support, I was able to participate in fashion shows that brought real visibility to my work — not just pretty moments, but meaningful opportunities. She also guided me on how to position myself in the media and secure press features that aligned with the story I wanted to tell.
Tare genuinely sees you — not just your work, but your potential. I’m so glad she’s now created UDGN, because more designers deserve this kind of support."
"When I met Tare, I had stepped away from my brand. It felt like everything had slowed down — I didn’t know how to re-enter the industry, especially in a new market. Tare helped me relaunch with purpose. She guided me through collection storytelling, product development, and positioned me as an emerging talent to watch.
With her support, I showed at fashion events, got stocked in retail spaces, and even landed a feature through UKFT. She connected me to manufacturers, gave brand clarity, and introduced me to the right networks. That kind of belief? It makes all the difference.
I’m so glad she’s now built UDGN — more designers deserve this level of care and strategy."

"Tare was with me from day one. As a new designer trying to find my place in the industry, I had passion — but I didn’t have a clear direction. Tare helped me shape everything: my brand identity, my first collection story, even how to think about production and marketing. She connected me with experts, press opportunities, and retailers who believed in my work.
Having her in my corner made me feel like I wasn’t alone in the process. She poured into me when I was still figuring it all out — and that’s something I’ll never forget.
Now with UDGN, I know so many more designers will get the same kind of care and guidance I was lucky to receive."

"I came to Tare knowing exactly what I wanted for my brand — I just needed the right support to reach it. She helped me amplify the momentum I already had, connecting me to industry insiders, guiding me toward the right retail platforms, and helping me position my Vogue feature as part of a larger brand story.
With her support, I secured press placements, fashion showcase opportunities, and built a stronger foundation for A.T.K Fashion House to thrive internationally.
UDGN is such a necessary platform, and I’m proud to say I was part of Tare’s journey even before it existed. Now, more designers can get the same kind of strategic push we all need."
"Working with Tare helped me elevate my brand in ways I hadn’t imagined. She helped me shape a clearer story around my collection — one that connected with the kind of clients I wanted to reach. Through her guidance, I got access to fashion shows, press features, and retail opportunities that gave Apparel by Mo real visibility.
It wasn’t just about being seen — it was about being seen in the right spaces. Tare’s support was both strategic and personal. She cared about my growth and helped me step into the next level of my brand with confidence.
I’m so proud of what she’s doing with UDGN. More designers deserve this kind of thoughtful, hands-on support."

"Working with Tare gave my brand the kind of momentum I’d been hoping for. She connected me with industry leaders, opened doors to fashion shows, and introduced me to retail opportunities that helped get my pieces into the right hands. Her support also led to key press features that gave Aphia Himhanuel greater visibility in a competitive space.
What makes her different is that she doesn’t just push — she partners. Every recommendation came with intention, and every move was aligned with my vision.
Seeing her launch UDGN feels like the next natural step — now more designers can grow with the kind of holistic, thoughtful support I was fortunate to receive."
"Tare didn’t need to do much hand-holding — I had the vision, I had the plan. But having her in my corner helped me move smarter. Her guidance gave clarity where it counted — streamlining ideas, strengthening strategy, and making sure my moves aligned with my long-term goals.
She brings fresh insight and honesty, which is rare. I trusted her perspective and it paid off. With UDGN now live, more designers are going to experience the kind of support that doesn’t try to change you — just sharpens what’s already there."
