Byutik.com owners - an interview

Three youngsters come together and build Byutik.com, which will launch early November this year.

Byutik.com is an online boutique with a one-stop shopping concept. The collections are still unrevealed, but I will post more review when the launching time is near.

Psst.. some of their tights collections are on display already as a sneak peek, and they look yummy! The latest news is, they are still developing their website (www.byutik.com) with an online blog available(http://byutik.blogspot.com).

I manage to get an online interview with the owners, Tania Mirella, Mitsuko and Luke. Here it goes!

1.Why Byutik.Com (about why you choose the name Byutik)?
Ide kami berawal dari pronounciation 'boutique' ala jaman baheula (b-y-u-tik),dengan image butik jaman dulu yang mahal, eksklusif dan high class. Kami ingin membuka online butik dengan image yang terinspirasi dari image eksklusifitas dan kualitas b-y-utik but with comparably low price.

2.Tell me a bit about the history behind Byutik.Com?
Dari dulu kita emang dah demen belanja online soalnya praktis, diverse dan lebih murah. Apalagi lately, we see that online fashion communities mulai marak di kalangan net-ers Indonesia (we even subscribe to many wonderful fashion sites including fasity.com!).

Dulunya kita (Tania, Mitsuko, Luke) juga pernah pengen set a store di shopping mall tapi akhirnya batal karena modal dan resikonya gede, apalagi kita bertiga juga masi berstatus anak kuliahan yang cuman punya savings pas-pasan... Dan lagi, being abroad sometimes juga bikin kita pengen banget share trend2 dan hottest streetwear di negara laen buat fashionista Indonesia.

Akhirnya belakangan timbul ide untuk ikut kontibusi di online fashion industry Indonesia dengan me-launch online shop byutik.com dan byutik fashion community byutik.blogspot.com.

3.What is Byutik.Com to you?
A dream come true. Dari high school dah pengen punya butik karena kecintaan kami pada fashion industry! Dan ini juga bentuk kontribusi kami untuk memarakkan komunitas fashion industry online yang sedang berkembang di Indonesia.

4.What brands do Byutik.Com carries?
Fashion is not always about the brand. We believe that style is a statement. It is about how we express ourselves and it should be fun. The real fashion to us is what people wear and what express most of themselves. That's why we try to maintain the diversity in our store so that consumers won't get bored.

5.What is Byutik.Com 's motto?
I'd rather be naked than fashion-less!

6.Choose one item that you love the most on Byutik.Com.
Tania: turquoise tights,
Mitsuko: red peep toe sling back shoes,
Luke: 'GEEK!' canvas bag

7.I have an outdoor wedding, what will you suggest me to pick from Byutik.Com?
We have LOADS of pretty dresses in our store! It's up to your taste & choice, from vintage to sleek cocktail dresses, all are with reasonable prices. Keep in mind that although quality determines price, but price doesn't always guarantee the quality.

In our byutik.com online store, you will never find yourself buying an overpriced stuff. And since nearly every item is personally picked by us, the chance of finding yourself wearing duplicates at your Starbucks' wedding is slim to none!

8.Define Byutik.Com's style.
young, fun and sophisticated.

9.Shock me.
Kami sangat menghargai bakat-bakat muda yang sedang meniti karir di bidang fashion design, oleh karena itu kami menawarkan kesempatan untuk mem-publish dan menjual desain2 mereka di byutik.com. Dan bagi desainer yang desainnya berhasil dimuat di byutik.com akan di-review dan di-publish di section 'contributors' di byutik.com.

10.Byutik.Com and Fasity.Com are....
hand in hand with effort to contribute in the growing community of online fashion industry!

Inspiring, isn’t it? Do drop a visit when the boutique launches early November!
