NYC Fashion Innovator: Leandra Medine Of The Manrepeller, The Thinking Woman's Fashion Icon

[A (very) small slice of Leandra’s closet] When did you start Manrepeller.com and did you know when you started it that it would become what is now your full time business? “Absolutely not. I was very lucky in that it gained traction so quickly, but I effectively only took all of the opportunities that came to me in the first six months because I thought that they would help me get a job out of college, I did not expect that this would be able to pay my bills.” What year did you start Manrepeller? “2010” When did you know you wanted to do it full time? “When I graduated college and realized that I had been monetizing it was sort of a no brainer because I loved doing it so much, and so to be able to turn it into a business was like a profound dream, I still can’t believe it.”
