advice

So, I am 15, female. I make clothing. I want to get my clothes out there. Do you think if I create enough clothing items that I can go to Target or Walmart, I can show them my ideas and I can get a clothing line? Or is that completely fabricated? I don't know how this stuff works. How do I go about getting my own clothing line? I want one really bad, I am quite dedicated to making clothes, I love the beauty of how you can make something yours with something as simple as a bow or a little tie somewhere. I knew I wanted to be a designer since I was little. I said to my mom when I was 7 "mommy, I want to be big one day" and she said "hunny, you can be bigger than big. you are so much more than you know" and since there I just exploded with ideas. I want this so bad. Have my own clothing line and maybe open my own boutique when I'm older and out of school, I just love designing. So, how do I go about getting my ideas out there? How do I also, go about getting my own line? Thanks!

That is not how it works.
Don't waste your time going to Walmart of Target. They are chain stores. One that says okay, is not enough to give you your own line.
If I were you, I would write to Macy's or another department store encloused with pictures, scetches, swatches, etc.
Let them have an idea of what you are about and your ideas. Also, I know Macy's has a junior fashion bored that you should look into joining. I'm not sure if that is only in my area or what, but ask/look into it.
You can sell your clothes on Ebay, or just sell to your friends. You could start a little boutique right out of your house!

Good luck!
