After graduating from Princeton in 2005 with a joint degree in engineering and finance, Vivian Weng took to Wall Street. After a few years working at McKinsey & Co. and Goldman Sachs, she realized she was less passionate about finance than she was about business, particularly retail. So, she went on to consult for various retail companies (from Elie Tahari to ESCADA) and worked with independent designers like Issy Salomon and Jeffrey Monteiro. After realizing this was the path she wanted to pursue, Vivian obtained her MBA from Harvard Business School, where she met the co-founder of her company FashionStake. As a leading online destination for consumers to discover and shop the most unique fashion from the world's top emerging designers, Vivian and her team work with more than 250 independent designers from 15 countries. And lately her hard work has paid off. InStyle recently rated FahionStake 'Best of the Web' for fashion in 2011. (Check out the magazine's November issue!)
