　　The Secret to the Success of MyShape.com

　　Wannier, who had started two successful technology companies, rushed home to begin work on the idea. Two years later, in October 2006, she launched myshape.com. Customers go online to enter their measurements (there are 11, from arm length to hip width) and are assigned one of seven body types based on their proportions. Software identifies selections for each shape by price (as low as $14.49 for a top, up to $605 for a coat), profile (modern classic, romantic glam, and artistic trendy), designer (from August Silk to Tadashi), and lifestyle (work attire to dress-up).
