The fact that these businesses are run by women is only tangentially relevant.
Shoptiques is a particularly interesting business. It creates value where none really existed before. Boutiques can't establish a real web presence, and mid market girls don't have access to NY/LA/London boutiques. This is an online business that creates value from thin air. Execution is the key, and the execs seem to be totally on track.
99 dresses is a potential home run but like all marketplace businesses it is tough. My favorite thing is that they are so low class. I love the idea that chicks are swapping dresses from F21. It is just so real and honest. I want them to be a major success just to spite the people behind renttherunway.
The daily muse looks like a newspaper to me, so I don't get the business. Hireart seems like a gimmick.
Women or no women, I'll be an ass and say what I think.
