Big News!
Andie Hi Friend, Eight years ago, I started Andie with a simple idea: swimwear shopping sucked, and I wanted to create something better. It all began with a $10K crowdfunding campaign, a Shopify page, and 50 swimsuits. Fast forward to today - Andie has raised over $30M from investors, sold millions of swimsuits, landed in Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's, and collaborated with icons like Demi Moore and Mindy Kaling. Along the way, I've seen it all—the highs, the challenges, the strategic moves that made a difference, and the obstacles that tested us. Now, I want to pay it forward. I'm thrilled to introduce The Andie Wave Maker Incubator - a biannual program designed to support and empower aspiring female founders. Each cycle, we'll select one entrepreneur to receive:
- A $5,000 cash grant from Andie to fuel their business
- 1:1 mentorship from me and the Andie team
- $10,000 in legal services from Fenwick & West to set their business up for success
- Access to a top-tier pitch deck consultant to help raise capital and scale
If you have a small business or have been dreaming of launching one, I'd love for you to apply. Applications are open now and close in one month - so don't wait! Learn more and apply here: Andie Wave Maker Incubator
I can't wait to help the next generation of female founders make waves. See you out there, Melanie
