99Dresses Emerges as Hottest Startup at Y Combinator Winter 2012
- Alex3917 15y agoIntuitively this has seemed like a good idea to me for a while, but whenever I've pitched it to women they've always hated it. I think it's telling that the two people they mention loving the idea are both men. Not saying it's a bad idea, but I don't think Scoble's opinion is a valid predictor of success either. There are actually three or four different versions of this idea on the list of 999 business ideas here: http://www.sixmonthmba.com/2009/02/999ideas.html http://www.sixmonthmba.com/2009/02/999ideas.html This was my version: "Pandora for clothes. A service that drops off a different set of clothes for you to wear on whatever days you want each week. (E.g. only on Friday and Saturday.) It shows you a complete wardrobe on the website, and if you don't like it then you get to veto it. You get up to three vetos each day, and if you veto three wardrobes then you automatically get the fourth. Then the clothes get delivered to your apartment. You have the option to buy the outfit at the end of the day, but if you don't buy it that day then you never get the option to buy it again."
