To make a real impact for businesses by implementing strategies thru the lens of the customer, the fan and the kidult. Our focus is to lock in on the communities surrounding properties and to provide an on-trend fresh perspective.
Derrick Baca’s experience in this industry spans from Retail, in which he was a buyer, planner and DMM; to the manufacturing world in which he has held numerous positions. Derrick leveraged his experience and knowledge in the licensing world and was able to grow his business at Hybrid apparel from 12 million to 300 million dollars. While at Loungefly, Derrick was tasked with the challenge of managing all of sales, planning, web and merchandising. Under his watch he was able to help grow the company from 28 million to over 250 million in less than 5 years.
Liz Desilva has been leading creative apparel and accessory teams for twenty years. She has been featured in numerous trade publications such as Forbes magazine, Licensing magazine, WWD, D23 and more. Liz’s unique fashion spin on pop culture has been sought after by many studios and even was tasked in 2015 by Disney to re-imagine what Disney Princesses looked like to an adult consumer.
As an “unofficial” influencer with nearly 10,000 followers herself, Liz Desilva’s connections to the influencer world is second to none. In the first 2 years at Loungefly, she was able to grow their Instagram following from 140,000 followers to over 500,000 followers with no budget.
Derrick and Liz are self proclaimed “Kidults.” This connection to pop culture and building a community around this lifestyle has been one of the cornerstones to their success
