A survivor's account of what working in the fashion/clothing industry is really like. From junior designer for chain-store suppliers in the Swinging Sixties to creating her own unique range of tweed country-wear, Jill Fitzgerald-O'Connor was part of the first wave of women entrepreneurs, and became the first woman business counsellor in the North-East for the Small Firms Service.
