This killer event is open to all fashionistas wanting to learn how to build a business on their smartphone.
What is Poshfest?
POSHFEST is Poshmark’s annual fashion conference which brings together hundreds of stylish, entrepreneurial women for a weekend packed with inspirational speakers, educational panels and workshops, fun parties and networking opportunities. At the event, attendees will learn about fashion trends, hear success stories, gain insider tips and mix and mingle with their peers.
PoshFest is the largest gathering of millennial female entrepreneurs who have built fashion businesses straight from their smartphones. One in 50 women in America is using Poshmark to build fashion boutiques on the go, and the app has millions of users in North America.

With a unique social merchandising engine Poshmark community members:
—Curate over 4M items per day to their followers, helping match supply and demand, leading to better discovery for buyers and more sales for sellers.
–Are addicted to the app–spending 25 minutes per day, opening the app 7-8 times a day.
—Some women boast 2M followers and making over six figures on Poshmark.
Poshfest 2015 Recap
There will also be sales on site from fashion brands: Peony & Moss, T&J Designs, Electric Yoga and more.
Ashton Kutcher, an early investor in Poshmark, recently opened up a Pop Up Shop on the app where Poshmark purchased items from his closet. He sold out of inventory in under 3 minutes this past Monday. These are all items that were previously owned/worn by Ashton. The merchandise has been released in batches and he will continue to upload batches of merchandise every Monday at 12pm.
All proceeds go to Thorn.
