From selling fax machines to revolutionizing fashion, the story of Sara Blakely and Spanx is legend. Once a 27-year-old with a dream and $5,000, Sara turned her pantyhose hack into a billion-dollar empire. With no fashion background, she learned patent law, convinced hosiery mills, and even used her sales skills to fax her way into the spotlight, including Oprah's "Favorite Things." Spanx isn't just about comfort; it's a testament to vision, perseverance, and the entrepreneurial spirit.
