  • Co-Founder, CEO at Premme
    Jan 2016 - Sep 2019 · 3 yrs 9 mos

    Premme was born out of a love of fashion and the recognition that the industry is still lacking when it comes to the wants and needs of plus size shoppers. We believe babes of all sizes deserve bold, fashion-forward statement pieces without compromise. At Premme, we think that clothing should be about expressing your personality and having fun, not feeling limited by outdated (and frankly, boring) rules. We want everyone to look and feel like their best self. Over two-years in market, we built a brand that maintained over 80% sell-through rate across 118-SKUs, maintained <5% return rate, and created a new standard of best practices for plus-size brands, social commerce, and talent-lead brands as a whole.
