BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Aug. 27 -- Brother International Corporation recently announced a business relationship with Jillian Lewis, one of three finalists of the hit fashion reality television show, "Project Runway" Season Four. Lewis was recently a keynote speaker at Brother's annual Back to Business event, where she explained how her own Brother sewing machine helped in developing her dream to become a fashion designer.

Lewis began sewing at the age of 16, on a Brother Pacesetter 2300. This Pacesetter model carried Lewis through her collegiate career at Parsons School of Design, and was used to create her first complete line shown on "Project Runway" Season Four. Lewis notes the Pacesetter 2300 "will go down in history" as a huge asset to her for creating clothes to wear to school, developing her senior thesis and preparing for "Project Runway" Season Four.

"Brother has come a long way in 100 years, especially in the last 50. I see my own story as parallel with Brother's," said Lewis. "I share the same vision in the realization of my dreams as a designer and in the history I have with my Brother machine," said Lewis.

In addition to aligning herself with Brother, Lewis is launching her new clothing line, which she calls "ultra-feminine, sexy, colorful and unique to my vision." Inspiration for the line came from many avenues, including graffiti. Lewis comments that her designs transform an irrelevant art form, making her collection abstract, sophisticated and chic.

For those who want to make their own fashions, Brother has recently introduced the C-Combo series, a line of affordable, feature-packed combination embroidery and sewing machines. The line features the Innov-is 900D and SE-350, and starts at around $399*. Both models boast advanced sewing and embroidery features in a compact, lightweight design, making them perfect for aspiring designers looking to discover their potential. For those looking to create their own individual styles, Lewis offers the following tips:

Beauty from Within...

Your inner-glow...the way you feel defines the way you want to be perceived.  If you feel good on the inside, you will feel good on the outside.  If you treat yourself well mentally on the inside, you will feel good on the outside.  If you treat yourself mentally and spiritually, you will feel good on the outside.  If you treat yourself mentally, spiritually and intellectually, you will feel good on the outside.  The way you feel about yourself is the way you want to be perceived. 

Your outer-glow...the way you look defines how you feel on the inside and it defines the way you want to be perceived.   If you get your hair styled, your nails done, buy a new outfit and get a make-over, you are making up what you look like on the outside.  If you do not feel as good as you do on the inside as you look on the outside, you are giving off false perceptions to the public.  You will not be glowing because your personality will prevail and what the public will see is a nice-looking person on the outside, but when they speak of your personality, reality will tell.

If you know who you are and your purpose in life--and you are working to achieve your goal in some way shape or form, and you are at a state of mind that no one will ever reach;  if you know of a being that can give you answers when in doubt and you feel that you have been ethical in your decisions; and if you researched and asked "Why?"--you are Real.

In real fashion, you can not feel good on the outside without feeling good on the inside.
