NANETTE LEPORE

Nanette Lepore is at the forefront fashion designer in New York city to save the crumbing garments. Lepore cuts, pins, sews, and boxes 85 percent of her line—or 20,000 garments a month—within a few blocks of her office on West 35th Street. But it's more than altruism that motivates her. "We can control our inventory," she told the Nightly Business Report on PBS in March. "We have speed to market. If Saks is selling out of a top, I can re-cut it and have it back in their stores in 10 days to two weeks."
