The company, described as BoldShapes, was established with the core mission of empowering women by making them feel comfortable and confident with their natural curves and shapes. Initially set up in the UK, the company has expanded its operations to include a US entity and buffer warehouse in Utah. Their primary sales channel currently involves distribution through e-commerce platforms, particularly Amazon, but they also maintain their unique website for direct sales.
The business has strategically focused on the USA due to its status as the largest global market for plus-size fashion. The product line includes a variety of shapewear options such as full-body shapers, partial shapers, yoga pants, and shapewear dresses. The standout product features include a bodycon dress designed to offer a flattering silhouette with non-compressive butt design and detachable cups. It’s crafted from eco-friendly modal fabric, recognized for its sustainability and biodegradability. The individualized fit is enhanced by adjustable straps and a double-layered abdominal design to provide a sleek, fashionable appearance.
Promising comfort, the dress integrates built-in shapewear eliminating the need for additional undergarments, thus ensuring a smooth and seamless look. It is designed with high-quality, breathable, and sweat-wicking fabric for all-day comfort suitable for various occasions, from casual to formal events.
In terms of financial progress, the business has solidified its footing in the competitive e-commerce landscape, achieving six-figure annual revenues and up to $20,000 monthly. However, recent personal commitments have impacted the founder's ability to fully unleash the brand’s potential.
