UnitedStyles wins Apparel Magazine

United Styles beta launch

Although the May issue of Apparel Magazine does not seem to be out yet, we already received a press release saying that UnitedStyles.com won a top innovator award from the magazine.

“UnitedStyles is one of 40 visionary apparel retailers, brands, and manufacturers that have achieved noteworthy success in the highly competitive global apparel marketplace. UnitedStyles will be featured in the 4th Annual Top Innovators Report, which will be published as a special issue in May and online at apparelmag.com.

UnitedStyles shares the Top Innovator award with other companies such as Burberry, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Columbia Sportswear.”
