Firstly, I feel that you should test the market out there first. There maybe already alot of boutiques selling what you're selling. Maybe you should put it up on the net first as it is capital-less and risk free.
Make a name for yourself from internet sales and if it shows results and gains popularity then you should start opening branches.

i m afraid that while ur bravery should be applauded, u may be diving head first into a pool without knowing the depth.
If I were u, I will start out small and sell them online using e-bay.
Alternatively, sell them under ur own label at flea markets... not pasar ma lam... but flea markets like those in the tanglin area..
