Ask Elisabeth directly Sample chat

When do you take a new brand into your assortment?

Elisabeth

When it fits ‘Flora’ aesthetically and the sustainability behind it is real — not just a pretty label. I run a curated store, not a bargain bin. But I'm enough of a businesswoman to ask whether it carries itself through a slow season. Both have to be right, or I pass.

In the chat, you ask Elisabeth your own questions — about your audience, your offer, your copy.
