This is the Tiny House of Fashion, the business Danelle Johnson has always dreamed of having.
眼前的这个就是时装小屋,丹尼尔·约翰逊一直都梦想拥有的事业。
After graduating from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, Johnson worked in Los Angeles where fashion trucks are popular.
约翰逊曾就读于时装设计与营销学院,毕业之后在洛杉矶工作,当时洛杉矶的时装卡车店已经相当普遍了。
That inspired her to return to her home state, Virginia, and this January start a mobile fashion business.
这一点激发了她回到家乡弗吉尼亚的想法,于是今年1月份,约翰逊的流动时装生意正式开张。
The theme is "We're tiny, but we dream big".
它的主题就是“小小的车厢,大大的理想”。
Everywhere I go and they see this tiny house, people want to know What is that. That is so cool! Trying to figure out what it is.
不管我走到哪里,只要有人看到这个小房子,他们就想知道这是干嘛用的,好酷的样子!接着就会去弄明白这到底是什么。
And once they see it oh, wow and you have a boutique, they automatically think it is amazing.
而一旦他们看到了里面的样子,就会说哇这居然是一个时装店,自然而然他们就会觉得很不错。
So being mobile, I think, really helps, and separated myself from a mall location.
所以流动的时装店还是很有用的,我可以不用非得固定待在购物中心。
As amazing as it is, there are challenges starting with driving to locations around Woodbridge, Virginia.

The biggest thing of course is pulling a trailer, I've never had to pull a trailer until I decided to do this.
最难的当然还是拉拖车,我决定干这个事业之前从来没有拉过拖车。
Also securing things when I'm moving and driving down the street, I have to secure all of the clothing,
我得在走街串巷的时候保证车里的东西都稳稳当当的,保护好里面的衣服,
secure the mirror that I also made to make sure nothing falls and nothing breaks.
还得保护好镜子,确保没有东西掉下来或者损坏。
Floor-to-ceiling glass windows let in natural light, which helps brighten the small space where Johnson displays her wares.
阳光通过落地玻璃窗洒满屋子,照亮了约翰逊的服装屋。
All of the clothes are made in the U.S., so I like to do a lot of research on different clothing.
所有的衣服都是美国制造的,我喜欢研究各种样式的衣服。
I also design clothes. So I'm also going to have local designers design for me.
我自己会设计衣服,但也会让本地设计师帮忙设计。

Share the post that she put up about it. And so I was like where is that?
然后我一个朋友说转发一下她发的帖子,我当时大概问的是她的店在哪啊?
She said just google it and you'll be able to find out the address anytime that she put it in cause it's always moving.
我朋友回答说谷歌一下,只要她更新了位置,你随时都可以查到地址,因为她们家店一直在路上。
Alicia Jones is a return customer.
艾丽西亚·琼斯是时装小屋的回头客。
If you look at the clothes, it is nothing that you find just by going to a store, anything like that.
你看看他们家的衣服就会发现,它们跟你去店里边看到的一点都不一样。
I see some things online, but you never know how it's going to fit, especially me being short.
