Rachel Zoe | $30 million

Fashion stylist Rachel Zoe has been in this industry for almost two decades, making her a veteran. From 2008 to 2013, she starred in the TV series The Rachel Zoe Project, which also aired both in Australia and the UK. As a fashion specialist, she has collaborated with Samsung, Gap, Piperlime, and QVC, among others. It was through these interactions with famous brands that she developed her own love for business and investing.

Investing in a startup is usually a big risk. Zoe, however, recognizes that risk and is willing to take them. She made the necessary investments in BeautyCon and FabFitFun. In 2017, BeautyCon reported earnings that are almost at $16 million, up from the $9 million earned the previous year. Apart from investing, Zoe also has excellent business acumen. An example of this was when Bustle Digital Group decided to acquire his style platform for an undisclosed amount in 2018.
