Here is my interview with the lovely and talented Krystal Corliss:
Can you tell us a little about your company...its specialty& key pieces?
I started TCC as a fun, cheeky brand that could appeal to
various audiences. Thus far I have men and women world wide representing my
brand. TCC has expanded into a brand that also raises awareness to more socially
conscience issues. I just started the More Love, Less Hate campaign. MLLH was
created to promote more love in the world. There is far too much bullying and
not enough people coming together to help and love each other. Equality is an
issue near and dear to my heart. And I hope that with this campaign I can help
the world change, even a little.
What made you start Tasteless Candy Clothing and prompted your interest in
the fashion industry?
I created Tasteless Candy Clothing Co. almost 9 years ago. It
was winter and my friends were having a hard time finding tank tops. In New
England, mid-winter you can't usually find that kind of apparel anywhere. So, I
took it upon myself to make them. I've always been interested in fashion. In
high school I basically lived in the art room, and I was accepted to three art
based colleges. I love art & fashion. Anything creative appeals to me.
What is your favorite piece from your line and your favorite celebrity client
that you've had?
My favorite piece that I have right now would be the, More
Love Less Hate t-shirt. Even though it's a simple t-shirt, it has a lot of
meaning and is very profound.
As for my favorite celebrity client, there are a few that I owe a big thanks to.
Aubry Fisher (LA INK) has worn my line numerous times while filming LA INK.
Also, Tamra Barney from The Real Housewives of Orange County has sported TCC on
her show regularly.
But as for a favorite, I don't necessarily have one. I appreciate everyone who
supports TCC.
What is the best advice you've received and your best advice to someone who
works in the fashion/clothing industry?
The best advice I have ever received being in this industry
would have to be to, keep doing what I love and don't look back. If I cared
about what everyone thought about my line, it wouldn't have become the success
it is today. And I only plan on making it more of a success.
The best advice I could give is to be the change. Don't let the norm keep you
from being creative. Everyone is an individual with their own thoughts. Be
creative with them, and show the world something new.
What is your life motto?
My life motto would have to be, More Love Less Hate. I am a firm believer that
love conquers all. If there was a little more love in this world, we wouldn't
have as many issues as we do. I just want everyone happy.
What new pieces can we expect coming up for the company and any special
events/promotions that you would like to share?
I have a lot of winter items coming out very soon. Hooded sweatshirts, pants,
jackets etc. I'm very excited about all of them. I'm like a kid at Christmas
when I release a new item. As far as events & promotions; there are quite a few.
With the More Love, Less Hate Campaign going on I will be speaking at colleges,
making appearances at gay clubs across the country etc. This past summer I had
the opportunity to film with a big network for a show about mainstreaming
Tasteless Candy Clothing Co. So we will see what happens with that! Keep your
eyes open!
