hi there
well i've done what you want to do.. i've started two years ago.. tees, belts, underwear.. i never had enough money to put into it so i could produce special models, nice prints, etc etc...
first thing before you go anywhere : if u plan to do only shirts.. unless you have e very good concept.. excellent desing and web skills you are not gonna go anywhere...
now if it's for leisure and a bit of money of course you can do it.. amercianapparel is one of the best wholesaler you can start with.. very nice stock and prices, reliable.. u'll find what you are looking for..
but from there if you intedn to grow and do some decent money you'll need to explore the worl of 'fashion'... produce your own models, find the girls / boys to wear them.. do very nice pictures... labels, packaging maybe ? organize your dealers network, your policies.. etc...
lots and lots to do.. again selling tee shirts is one thing.. more and more designers (and good ones) think they found the mecca when they will print their beloved desing onto simple t shirts.. but that's wrong.. you need sexy clothes, groovy models, embroidery, lables, : everything that will make your clothes look like a real Clothing line... *
i have not achieved this.. but i have tried my best and today i'm quite happy to sell a tee shirt sometimes and ship it at the other end of the world...
good luck man
