The Future of Getting Dressed: How Kat Sheppard Built Tote, the AI Styling You From Your Own Closet!

In this episode of House of Her, Kat and Gio sit down with Kat Sheppard, co-founder and CEO of Tote — the AI-powered social wardrobe app that’s redefining how women get dressed.

Before founding Tote, Kat ran a sustainable swimwear brand for four years, where she saw firsthand the challenges women face in finding the right fit, trusting style advice, and growing authentic, emerging brands. Those insights sparked the creation of Tote — the first intelligent platform merging AI and social input to deliver personalized styling from real closets.

Together, they discuss the intersection of fashion, technology, and identity — and how Kat’s story proves that innovation often begins with solving your own problem.They also dive into the importance of building community, both online and IRL — and how Tote’s thoughtfully curated events have helped women connect, express themselves, and feel inspired beyond the app.
