Hi everybody!

I am thinking to start my own clothing line. It will be a line of casual dresses/ tshirts, the kind of stuff you see in Southern California.

My question are: do I need to register the business, from the llc/ s corporation ( didn't decide which way to go yet), file the trademark/ before I actually start production?

All I have right now are my designs, need to look for pattermakers Downtown LA and a production factory.
I would like to start small and keep everything local and not outsource anything.
(grow like Juicy Couture-- after they sold they company, no more made in the Glamorous USA:-)

I am kind of confused with the steps I need to take.

I am european, but living in Hollywood for acting/ was in the fashion business for a number of years but this is my first business attempt, so I want to do it right.

I would love to find a mentor on this website, or, if not, just nice people that know business more than I do, willing to answer my questions from time to time.

Thank you:-)
