How long have you been in business in <strong>Faulkner</strong> County?<br />

Opened in this same location in 1958<br />

What do you love most about your business and<br />

why? First, the interaction with people. You must be a<br />

people person to love this business. We look forward to<br />

relationships with our returning customers and building<br />

relationships with new customers for the very first time.<br />

How has your business changed/evolved over time?<br />

Another reason that we love this business is that change<br />

is built into the business model. We totally change each<br />

season. Also, changes in the industry happen more<br />

frequently each year. Over time we have changed to a larger<br />

mix of accessories along with apparel.<br />

How are you involved in your community/county?<br />

We are focusing on women’s support like the Women’s<br />

Shelter of Central Arkansas and similar groups.<br />

What do you love most about being a business owner in<br />

<strong>Faulkner</strong> County? It’s a wonderful place to live and we also<br />

enjoy the relationships with other small business owner/<br />

operators.<br />

Who is/was your inspiration for owning a business and<br />

why? This business has been in our family for over 60 years.<br />

My father Roy started our business in Clinton and now<br />

Brooke wants to see it continue.<br />

What plans do you have for the future? We are implementing<br />

new software to better manage sales and inventory<br />

and are committed to the growth of Downtown Conway!<br />

Subscribe to our website www.leflersfashion.com to know<br />

what’s next!<br />

What are some of the latest trends in your industry?<br />

Apparel has shifted to more casual dressing that can be worn<br />

from day to evening. Instead of complete outfits, the emphasis<br />

is on items to be used with pieces in your current wardrobe.<br />

What sets you apart from other businesses in your<br />

industry? Our industry has shifted to using less expensive<br />

fabrics that aren’t made to last multiple seasons. We,<br />

however, are still trying to concentrate on quality items that<br />

are also affordable.<br />
