We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Avneet Singh. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Avneet below.
Avneet, first a big thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and insights with us today. I’m sure many of our readers will benefit from your wisdom, and one of the areas where we think your insight might be most helpful is related to imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is holding so many people back from reaching their true and highest potential and so we’d love to hear about your journey and how you overcame imposter syndrome.
As a first-generation immigrant, experiencing imposter syndrome is quite common. It’s crucial to pause occasionally and reflect on why you’re tackling a particular problem and why you were invited to a particular setting. For anyone grappling with imposter syndrome, making these connections can be challenging and might even feel unnatural. One strategy that has helped me is jotting down my most significant achievements and the obstacles I’ve overcome in recent years. Recognizing your accomplishments helps you understand your rightful place and why you are ideally suited to advance these efforts. Remember, your expertise, successes, failures, and insights are valuable, and each of us offers a unique perspective.
Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?
Regent Row is a men’s apparel brand reshaping the landscape of inclusive sizing. Its mission is to fill the void in the market with high-quality, stylish, and technologically advanced clothing options for men sizes XL to 6XL. Fashion brands and society often conveniently forget to include the majority of the US population in the conversation. However, the reality is that 39 million people in America are size XL and above, yet 90% of the stores do not carry anything above size XL. Typically, one can find larger sizes at the back of the rack, but these are usually of poor quality or do not fit right, resulting in disappointment, frustration, and low self-esteem. Success for the brand is when men can feel empowered, celebrated, and confident in every garment. Each item at Regent Row is made with premium fabrics, designed to ensure unparalleled comfort and confidence.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
The journey to create clothing that fits well for a diverse set of body types was far from easy; it presented our biggest challenge. We conducted over 20 different fit tests and spent more than a year sourcing the right fabric to ensure our clothing not only fits perfectly but also offers unparalleled comfort and durability. Our current collection features temperature-regulating technology, making it extremely breathable, moisture-wicking, and wrinkle-resistant. This attention to detail has been well received by our customers, who frequently commend the softness and quality of the fabric, as well as the confidence they gain from clothing that reflects their true selves.
From the early feedback, it’s clear that our customers appreciate seeing themselves represented and enjoy the superior fit of our clothes. Moving forward, we aim to further perfect our fit and offer more affordable options, all while maintaining these high-quality standards as our core commitment.
At Regent Row, we believe that everyone deserves to look good and feel comfortable regardless of their body shape. Over the upcoming year, we plan to offer a wide range of products that empower men to have choices and feel confident in their body.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
Our goal is to build a diverse roster of plus-size male models at Regent Row. We’re committed to representing all body sizes, shapes, and colors. If you’re a plus-size male with a great sense of style and would like to see yourself on our website, please reach out! You don’t need to have modeling experience; we’re looking for genuine individuals who reflect our customers.
