Queenly Acquires Mi Padrino

The Queenly team has some exciting news to share with you! Even though we usually like to keep the shopping to you, we might’ve gone on a little shopping spree ourselves. It’s officially official… Queenly has acquired Mi Padrino!

We know what you must be thinking and no, Mi Padrino isn’t a type of dress. It’s actually an online mobile app (similar to Queenly) where you can completely plan your Quinceneara. How cool is that?! Now, you can do all of your Quinceanera dress shopping directly on Queenly!

As the leading formalwear resale app, we’ve committed ourselves to making every type of gown affordable for everyone. Whether you’re attending your senior prom, competing in your first pageant, or planning out your dream quinceanera, Queenly is the place for you!

Kathy Zhou, one of our fearless leaders and CTO of Queenly, shared her thoughts on this acquisition: “As a female minority founder, I understand the various struggles of underrepresented communities,” she explained. “At Queenly we thrive to make sure our company goes out of our way to support minority communities and we look forward to helping Latinx women celebrate this important milestone.”

It’s safe to say that we’re completely obsessed with these eye-catching, intricate gowns. Let’s keep the shopping going- try browsing through our featured Quinceanera dresses!

We are truly honored to have Mi Padrino become a part of Queenly. This is why we want to share a special gift with all Mi Padrino users! We want to give every Mi Padrino user a $30 store credit once they make a Queenly account, Oh- and if you’ve already bought your Quinceanera dress, you can easily list it on Queenly so you can make money for another occasion. It’s the best of both worlds!

We would love to give a huge thank you and shoutout to the CEO and co-founder of Mi Padrino, Kim Gamez, for trusting us with her vision. We know how much hard work, determination, and perseverance it takes to start a successful company, so it means the world that Queenly has been trusted with this monumental task! Kim shared a few of her thoughts about what’s in store:

“I’ve gotten to know Queenly over the past few months and have developed a deep admiration for their unwavering focus on providing impeccable customer service, as well as having the most inclusive and diverse inventory of formal wear dresses for their community” she explained. “Queenly is the most digitally advanced dress marketplace, with a very easy-to-use website (queenly.com) and mobile apps (iOS and Android). They have built their service in the right way, prioritizing people and giving a white-glove quality of customer experience over everything else. Thank you for the trust you have placed in us over the years. We're excited for you to work with Queenly and know that you will be well taken care of.”

We can’t thank Kim enough for her kind words! We hope that every Mi Padrino user will have just as much trust in the Queenly experience. We can’t wait to help you celebrate your Quinceanera the Queenly way!
