Stitch Fix is an online subscription and personal shopping service. It was founded by Katrina Lake in 2011.[2][3]
Service
Stitch Fix is a personal styling service that sends individually picked clothing and accessories items for a one-time styling fee. Stitch Fix customers fill out a survey online about their style preferences. A stylist at the company picks five items to send to the customer. Stylists pick items based off a customer's survey answers and any access the customer gives them to their social media outlets such as Pinterest. The customer schedules a date to receive their items, which is referred to as a "Fix." Once the shipment is received, the customer has three days to either keep the items or return them. If they keep an item, the initial styling fee applies towards the cost of the item. You can choose the time between shipments such as two weeks, once a month or every two months. You can also create a board on Pinterest where you can add photos of fashion looks that you like. Once you have created your board you can copy the link and add it to your style preferences where your stylist can view your photos.[4][5][6]
