Mission
Value Proposition
A curated online boutique offering alternative fashion — clothing, jewelry, and accessories with a dark, edgy aesthetic. Think 90s grunge meets gothic elegance with a modern streetwear edge. We make it easy for customers to find unique, high-quality pieces that express their darker style without having to hunt across scattered sellers.
Target Customer
Fashion-conscious individuals (18–35) drawn to alt, 90s grunge, gothic, and overall edgy aesthetics. They value self-expression through style, shop primarily online, and are active on Instagram and TikTok. They're looking for pieces that are unique, not mass-market.
Revenue Model
Direct e-commerce sales via an online storefront. Revenue comes from:
- Clothing, jewelry, and accessories sold at retail markup
- Drop-shipping or curated wholesale sourcing (low upfront inventory risk)
- Free shipping above a threshold to incentivize larger carts
KPIs
