Business Formation & Structuring
Behind every fashion brand is a business that needs to be legally sound in order to scale. The Fashion Law Lab assists designers and fashion entrepreneurs form and structure their businesses with clarity, stability, and future growth in mind. Whether launching a startup label, entering into a partnership, or structuring co-founder relationships, we ensure that the legal foundation is strong enough to support creative ambition.
Our services include advising on entity selection (LLCs, corporations, partnerships), ownership structures, and governance frameworks that reflect each brand’s unique vision. We draft operating agreements, shareholder agreements, and partnership contracts that clearly define equity, profit-sharing, decision-making authority, and exit strategies—minimizing the risk of disputes and misalignment as the brand grows.
Because fashion is a fast-moving, image-driven industry, we also help clients build flexible structures that can accommodate rapid scaling, investment opportunities, and global expansion. By pairing legal precision with an understanding of fashion’s commercial realities, we provide structures that not only protect our clients today but also position them for long-term success. At the Fashion Law Lab, we believe that a well-built business is the runway for a brand’s creative future.
