Frankie Shop
Independent fashion boutique · 4+ locations · NYC, Paris, London
The Frankie Shop is a $40M fashion brand built by one owner, Gaëlle Drevet, on cash flow alone. She's hiring her first CEO to take it to London. Downstream, the supply chain behind it stays invisible: no factory list or audits.
The Big Picture
Gaëlle Drevet has owned The Frankie Shop outright since opening her first Lower East Side shop, growing it past $40 million in revenue with zero outside investors — and she just hired her first CEO to take the brand international. Downstream is a different story: production runs through China and Turkey with no factory list, no audits, and no living wage commitment. The founder answers to herself; the people who make the clothes are invisible in the record.
