Welcome to Shapely’s first Big Business Highlight.

Every month a business that is either run by a person of size or caters to people of size will be featured. First up is Dria’s Gems. Dria’s Gems was designed with all women of different sizes in mind. Each individual item in their store is a statement piece that they hope you’ll enjoy.

We had the pleasure of speaking with Dria and asked her a couple of short questions.

What got you started?

I started Dria’s Gems because I’ve always been into fashion. My motto is when you look good you feel good. Growing up it was hard for me to find clothes sometimes because of my curvy figure. Once covid hit I realized it was time to put my fears aside and just start with an all inclusive online store for women. Dria comes my name Alexandria and all my pieces from my store I consider a gem, beautifully unique.

Why an online boutique?

I started a online store because I didn’t want my pieces to be limited to one area or county. I currently sell within the United States but I do have plans expanding shipping options to other countries in due time.
