Trunk Club was a personalized mid- to high-end men's and women's clothing service based in Chicago, Illinois, United States.
[1] Each customer worked with a styling specialist who curated clothing for their box (referred to as a "trunk"), which was shipped to their home or office.
[3][4] The Trunk Club remote styling idea was initially conceived in 2009 by Joanna Van Vleck while she was an MBA student.
[11] The key to growth was the partnership between Brian Spaly and Rob Chesney, who formed a dynamic duo of story-telling and inside operations complexity.
[12] In addition to the original Chicago location in the River North neighborhood,[6] Spaly led clubhouse expansion to Dallas, Washington DC, New York City, Los Angeles, and Boston.
