She has spent more than twenty years teaching legacy retailers to fall in love with data - and consumers to fall in love with brands. At Rebel Athletic, the marketing chief is aiming both talents at the world of crystals, sparkle and competitive cheer.
Rebel Athletic
Rebel Athletic is a Carrollton, Texas-based designer and manufacturer of couture cheerleading, dance, and athletic apparel, known for crystal-embellished 'luxury athletic wear for those that sparkle.' Founded in 2012 by Karen Noseff Aldridge, the company built a vertically integrated model - designing like a fashion house and producing in its own offshore factory - to challenge market leader Varsity Brands with faster service, deep customization, and better value. It serves allstar gyms, school and youth programs, dance studios, and pro cheer squads, and has expanded into direct-to-consumer retail and e-commerce, including a flagship store at The Shops at Willow Bend in Plano.
