Nasty Gal, a Los Angeles-based fashion retailer, raised $16m in Series C funding.
The round was led by Ron Johnson, CEO of Enjoy, who joined Nasty Gal’s board in conjunction with the funding, with participation from existing investor Index Ventures.
The company, which has now raised $65m in total, intends to use the funds to continue to grow operations.
Established in 2006 by Sophia Amoruso, executive chairman, and led by Sheree Waterson, CEO, Nasty Gal offers women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories. It launched its first retail store on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles in November of 2014 and has a second planned for the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica in the spring of this year.
