56 || MOST FITNESS || APRIL 2016luxury when I started the business and was working 70 to 80 hours a week. Yet, I made that decision that for me to grow it I was going to make a commitment for a certain number of years. Once it got a bit more stabilized, and I got more staff, I%u2019ve been able to sit back a little bit and breathe and enjoy the business. I joke that business is like a child-it starts out all cute and adorable, and then it gets older, a bit fussy, and then it hits the teenage years where it becomes quite difficult and you have to think about it all, and then it becomes a young adult and starts blooming on its own. I%u2019m fortunate my company has now become an adult, and I can enjoy it in a different way. I enjoy doing a lot of advertising type activities and thinking about the big picture.MFM: You just shot your 2016 spring look book?JB: I%u2019m very excited. There are going to be a lot of laser cut details that are coming out in spring 2016. You%u2019re going to see a lot more cutouts in certain areas and a lot more layering. Prints have been popular and are continuing to become even more popular. The fabrics are getting more unique and becoming more textured. Neoprene, they call it a super fabric, is starting to become integrated with a lot of pieces. It%u2019s really stunning and is nice and breathable with good compression. So lots of colors, prints, and cutouts are leading the way for Spring 2016.
