In 2008, Sam Sisakhti founded UsTrendy to help talented fashion designers break down barriers created by the industry�s elite to make a name for themselves.
Sam created UsTrendy knowing that for too long the fashion industry has been plagued with imperfect information as to what consumers want. Buyers have relied on gut feel and often times imperfect historic trends to making their buying decisions. In addition, designers having a seemingly impossible task to achieve their dreams of seeing their clothing produced and sold to consumers. UsTrendy seeks to solve this market problem by for the first time by empowering consumers to buy directly from designers and providing designers an outlet to reach thousands of customers.�
How does it work?
Fashion designers upload their clothing for sale. Users are able to vote and purchase their favorites directly from the designers. Then UsTrendy helps fund and promote the top-rated fashions! Finally, the people�s voice can be heard and designers can pursue their dreams.
What makes us think we are on to something?
Founded in 2008, UsTrendy has already become one of the largest fashion design websites on the web, with over 15,000 fashion designers and over 500,000 designs uploaded to date. We have hosted several of the web�s largest fashion competitions, garnering hundreds of thousands of votes per competition. We have established partnerships with major fashion weeks, including London Fashion Week, and generated millions of dollars of sales for Independent Fashion Designers.
We are dedicated to the goal of democratizing fashion, and we feel that your publication could help us achieve that goal.
