We have a special treat for you guys with this episode! We got to talk to Leslie Voorhees Means, CEO and Co-Founder of the wedding dress company, Anamolie. We discuss how they are disrupting the wedding dress industry, what kinds of trends are happening for all the brides these days, and how getting a custom wedding dress is easier than ever, and without all the awkwardness of the bridal boutique experiences, whether that be from the shops not having your size, your style or just the fact that you're naked with a stranger being stuffed into dresses. It's a great converstion on how things have been changing over the past few years and one you won't want to miss!

You can check out Anamolie on IG, their handle is @anomalie or their website which is dressanomalie.com 

A disruptive bridal tech startup that has more than 4 billion options to customise a wedding dress, for a fraction of the cost of regular gowns. Genius!  

In this episode we're talking about the lightbulb moment that lead to Leslie starting the business with her now husband, how her background in product development at companies like Nike and Apple became one of their biggest strengths, key advice for fundraising and the moment that a random TikTok video went viral and generated 800,000 sign ups to their website in month alone.
