Female-Led Vintage Clothing Platforms

Dressmate Launched Online to Sell Chic Feminist Brands

— June 3, 2019 — Fashion
Dressmate, a new female-focused and vintage clothing platform, gives users access to modern and sustainable brands. The business originally started as a Facebook group that rented clothing and has since evolved to let users shop online for eco-friendly, slow fashion pieces.

Dressmate was founded by Jennifer Simons and features brands like Paloma Wool, OORI OTT, and Seoul Import. Simons stated that “Dressmate was born by putting ‘dress’ and ‘mate’ together on a whim. I liked it immediately because it aligned with this inspiration of getting ready for a night out (or in) with your friends.” The pieces chosen are classic basics that are essential for a chic and timeless wardrobe. The slow fashion site also features unique vintage pieces for those looking for one-of-a-kind items.

The funky brand is dedicated to empowering women globally and will surely become a staple for the modern woman.
