From Finance to Finding the Perfect Fit!
Alice Kim is the founder of PerfectDD, a direct-to-consumer ready-to-wear brand targeting women with a DD+ chest and a small frame (sizes 0-12), with a mission to change the dialogue around boobs – no more oversexualizing and body shaming to body positivity and empowerment.
Born and raised in NYC, Alice started her career in Investment Banking then shifted gears into Fashion for almost two decades, holding various positions in merchandising, buying, and wholesale working at the likes of Shopbop, Diane von Furstenberg, and Prada before starting PerfectDD. Alice is a graduate of Dartmouth College and resides in NYC.
We can’t wait to hear why and how she pivoted from investment banking into retail and the story behind her new brainchild – PerfectDD!
