Do you keep telling yourself you have nothing to wear despite having a closet full of clothes? Are there items in your closet you have invested a lot of money in and will never wear them again but don’t have the time it would take to sell them online? Join me as my guests Janet Wu and Erin Wold share a new way to clean out your closets to make room for the styles you love and wear.
SilkRoll was founded by Janet Wu, who spent 10 years developing her style and taste in fashion while working around the world as an investment banker. Her lucrative career allowed her to create the closet of her dreams, but left her always wanting more… With a wealth of financial knowledge Janet took a risk and became the CFO of a cleantech startup and eventually moved to San Francisco where her entire high-end wardrobe became obsolete. Everyday she looked at the fashion she loved but no longer wore and was unsatisfied with the options to purge this valuable collection. She contemplated, ”how can I keep the value of this fashion and share it with someone who would appreciate my style?” On the 4th of July, 2015, Janet shared her idea with Erin Wold. Erin always dreamed of owning this kind of fashion but with an abundance of student loan debt her ability to invest in high quality fashion was limited. By this time, Erin had already spent 4 years in operations at a startup that was in skyrocket growth mode, so she knew her expertise in scaling operations was as valuable as this idea, she became Janet’s co-founder.
