When it comes to shopping I have always behaved like a man - more of a hunter than a gatherer. I steer clear of friends who browse and never buy because I always know exactly what I am looking for and where are the best places to find it. I may have a few trendy pieces, like the Dolce & Gabbana leopard print sequin skirt but in general I stick with pieces that don't look like they have been mass-produced by some 12-year old in China.
Since I think like a man when it comes to shopping, I am happy to report that great strides have been made to cater to this v. underserved market - men's fashion. Fashion entrepreneurs realize that men typically loathe the brick and mortar experience and therefore have developed sophisticated systems to offer the same service and product you would find at retail but instead you never have to leave your desk.
The Trunk Club is a pioneer in this space. This company specializes in providing virtual stylists to its members. The membership is complimentary and once you sign up, your own personal Trunk Club style expert who will help you build your personal style and wardrobe based on need and lifestyle - all without leaving your desk. Shortly after your initial consultation, voila! a "trunk" of clothing, personally hand selected arrives at your doorstep and while you were on that conference call and answering emails.
I was so impressed by the value that the Trunk Club offers men that I joined their team of virtual style experts. I knew having Brian Spaly, former CEO of Bonobos, leading the team meant that care and thought would be put into every decision the company makes from the merchant partnerships to shipping and customer service. Since I am based in NYC, I will be handling the NYC and metro area. I handle consultation both virtually and in person. Email me at alexisstack@trunkclub.
If you are interested in reinvigorating your style or just a simple solution from waiting in long lines then having a virtual style expert is the only solution. Get access to the best brands, hand selected for you all without leaving your chair.
