Welcome to Wunderbloc!
We are a new kind of shopping site dedicated to empowering the local boutique community and those who love shopping there. Our goal is to bring the intimacy and authenticity of great shopping neighborhoods (think Soho, New York) to a worldwide audience. Wunderbloc gives the individual boutique owner the opportunity to reach and communicate with shoppers beyond his or her sidewalk and gives the individual shopper, regardless of physical location, the chance to explore the latest fashions, trends and boutique offerings from the world's leading boutique communities. In doing so, we hope to build a more accessible shopping experience that benefits both shoppers and boutiques.
Wunderbloc is both a community and a marketplace designed specifically for the local, boutique-shopping market. We are not a search engine or a discount e-tailer for high-end clothing. Instead, Wunderbloc is a place where shoppers and boutiques can come together to share, network and do business. In other words, we want you to come out and flaunt your stuff! Ultimately, we believe shopping is an experience far beyond making a purchase. We encourage both parties to participate and interact as they would in the real world.
Wunderbloc is also a tribute to the everyday fashionistas who grace our streets and catch our eye. You are the trendsetters and the risk-takers who help push our fashion culture and identity. Without you, we would not have our New York 'hipster', Boston 'prep' or L.A. 'flash'. We adore your style and daring expression, and perhaps, just a little, curse under jealous breath your dazzling dash. Love you or hate you, you inspire us, and for that we acknowledge you.
