What’s Inside Your Closet??
How many times have you spotted someone who’s rocking a killer pair of booties or swinging around the most delectable piece of arm candy you can imagine? How about catching a glimpse of someone who just really knows how to piece together an awesome outfit? Someone whose style you’re just dying to emulate?
I came across an article in Venture Beat for a brand-new digital concept in fashion. Poshmark, in Menlo Park, CA, is launching a women’s fashion marketplace in app form where members can follow the closets of fellow fashionistas and buy coveted items at up to 70% off retail. No longer do you need to chase after these style mavens at the mall! LOL, am I the only one who actually does this and looks like a crazed stalker in the process??
It’s fabulous, socialization of looks and trends for fashion lovers! You can even sell your own wares! Based on your tastes and closet browsing history, you’ll get a feed from the app that connects you to your fave designer duds and style icons. When you follow others or make purchases from their closets or other retailers, the app will craft your own unique Style Genome. And the best part is that you can have a split fashion personality – boho and preppy, glam and grunge…you’ll never be pigeon-holed into one category again!
Absolutely BRILLIANT concept. And they’ve gotten millions upon millions from angel investors like Aston Kutcher and Rachel Zoe to prove it.
