Forbes on Flip Fit:
"In Flip Fit’s case, there are so many business models coming together in one company; it is startling. The company is one part fashion research, one part online shopping, one part box subscription, one part social influence to validate fashion choices, and one part logistics to cost-effectively streamline trying on a “full bracket” (multiple sizes or options of a garment) and easily returning the “Nos.” ".
Yup, that pretty much nails it 🙂
