StyleShake got some serious PR

StyleShake, one of our Portfolio company, is continuously getting some PR love (translated in nice web metrics and sales). But lately it got spotted in 2 major sites

BusinessWeek

At the site of British startup StyleShake, users design and work together online on their own cocktail dresses, which they can send to the company to have turned into clothing for them

Tim O'Reilly (Yes the one who created the late "Web2.0" expression). Here is the bit that i preferred

But to return to the "maker" movement, the big tent includes not just "DIY," as the mainstream media is thinking of it, but the way in which computing is re-engaging with the physical world.

Well done Iris. Keep up

update: Now in DailyCandy (i love the design of this site)
