Check us out in the newest issue of N.E.E.T. Magazine!

We were thrilled to be featured in the September 2010 Issue of N.E.E.T. Magazine, a publication close to our hearts as it features small, emerging & independent designers! We have been longtime readers and supporters, so we were extra happy when the editors reached out to do an interview for their N.E.E.T. People section.

We were interviewed by none other than Mary Andrews too, who we truly admire. What an honor!

Thank you for the feature, N.E.E.T!!

Introducing - An Exclusive Vintage Collection from DLC Brooklyn for Market Publique

DLC Brooklyn + Market Publique

Exclusive vintage collection by DLC Brooklyn for Market Publique - Launching Sept 1st! Photography by Meg Shoemaker.

DLC Brooklyn was born from Susan Domelsmith’s pioneering vision to reconfigure and deconstruct hand selected vintage pieces through draping, knotting and tangling, a style that has become a fashion mainstay. Susan’s unique craftsmanship is an art that she has mastered since 2004, which she continuously updates to keep her far ahead of the curve. 

Since DLC Brooklyn uses all vintage materials, designer Susan Domelsmith has sifted through thousands of pieces over the six years that she has been collecting the components of her unique jewelry.  Some of these pieces were too special to disassemble, and from this collection that have come to us from all over the globe, we offer you hand picked pieces from the DLC vintage vaults.  

Susan's pieces have appeared in Nylon, Jalouse, Jane and Vogue China, as well as being featured on the cover of Teen Vogue (June/July 2006). Jessica Alba, Debbie Harry, Kate Hudson, Eve, Jessica Szohr, KT Tunstall, Ellen Allien, Holly Williams, Peaches and members of bands like Yacht, Vivian Girls, Ladytron, and Rilo Kiley have been seen wearing pieces from the line.

We are thrilled to have Susan open her vintage vault to us, and present her one-of-a-kind finds to the Market Publique community on September 1st.

See Video from our Presentation at NY Tech Meetup

Watch live streaming video from nytechmeetup at livestream.com

Presenting at the NY Tech Meetup was exhilarating! We were nervous to demo in front of the 800+ crowd, but we think we did pretty great (and we had a TON of fun!). Judge for yourself by watching our presentation on Livestream, above. We especially liked the Q&A session, when someone asked - "Why should I join your site?" and we responded: "Because it's awesome..."

 

We were honored to present with other amazing New York City-based startups including: Eventros, Turnto, Indaba, Twilio, Philo and Texai. (Plus a sneak peek at new features from Bing). The experience was mind-blowing, especially when Twilio live-coded PHP on stage, then had a phone conference on the fly with the entire Skirball audience. Mind blowing.

If you couldn't make it to NYTM or want to hear more about how and why we built Market Publique, we'll be doing a more in-depth presentation tonight at The Product Group. RSVP here.

 

Also, check out what the blogosphere is saying about our demo:

"Market Publique: What Etsy was for DIY: Market Publique is a website for vintage clothing vendors to sell their goods all in one place. Vendors go through an extensive process with the site's executive board to make sure the clothes are legit, and are offered better, uniform technology to photograph and showcase their pieces in a more appealing manner than a personal website. MP takes 5% commission, but the aggregated traffic couldn't hurt."

- The Village Voice Blog, Running Scared. Full post here.

 

"Market Publique: Long Tail Application’s Win
Market Publique is  an excellent example of a “long tail” strategy, coupled with a passionate entrepreneur.  It’s a winner.  It carves out a nice clean market from the “head” of the long tail, or the established market leaders in the category. In this case the category is person-to-person online sales, like eBay. Market Publique adopts an already well-understood methods from online stores and then applies it to vintage clothing. There is no learning curve for the new user; they simply see eBay on steroids for vintage clothes – if vintage clothes are your thing, you’re sucked in. The site offers sophistication unique to vintage clothes, a personal vetting process for sellers (“no Dudes”) and superior product presentation. All of these simple features are beyond what generalists like eBay could offer. Market Publique is a simple retail play and potential big winner."

"A shopping site for vintage clothing with an exclusivity clause: sellers are vetted to make sure their clothing is vintage enough and their photographs of merchandise are attractive enough."

- NY Convergence. Full post here.

 

"...very easy site to manage your inventory and solutions."

- Sanford Dickert, fellow presenter from Texai. Full post on his blog.
