eCommerce Meets High Street: How Wardrobe at The Cross Wins with Personalization and Trust, with Hilary Large

Hilary Large is the owner at Wardrobe at The Cross, a women’s fashion boutique. Launched in 2023, they sell via their physical high street store, and via their Shopify website and have already built to 100s of orders a week.

In this episode, Hilary shares how she’s blending the best of in-store service with online scale — from personally calling first-time customers to building a brand rooted in trust, experience, and genuine connection.

Hit PLAY to hear:

  • 💡 How Hilary Large built a women’s fashion brand that blends bricks and clicks — and why it works.
  • ☎️ The surprising reason she personally calls every first-time online customer (and what it does for retention).
  • 🛍️ How a small boutique competes with big brands by delivering luxury-level service.
  • 📦 The simple systems that keep her returns low and repeat purchases high.
  • 👗 Why having a physical store still matters — even in a digital-first world.
