## About

Based in California, US, and founded in 2019 by co-founders Trisha Bantigue and Kathy Zhou, Queenly, Inc. is a marketplace and search engine for the formalwear industry. The company has grown to over 125,000 users, 60,000 unique dresses listed on their platform, and a total inventory value of USD 15 million. In July 2021, Queenly raised USD 6.3 million in venture funding led by Andreessen Horowitz.

Queenly categorizes dresses through computer vision and machine learning systems built by its co-founder Kathy Zhou. The company's marketplace includes a feature where users are able to search by color shades, necklines, hemlines, fabrics, and body measurements. The company also offers a feature that allows flexibility and access to purchases with negotiable prices, enabling buyers to purchase varieties of formal wear at their own acceptable price and convenience.  

Queenly plans to grow its team to keep up with the demand in the industry in a post-COVID era, as well as efficiently scale out its operations and engineering features. It also plans to innovate and bring all categories of the formalwear inventory online.
