Moda Operandi Raises $10 Million

Moda Operandi, a New York-based online luxury apparel retailer, said Monday it raised $10 million in series B financing in a round led by venture capital firm New Enterprise Associates. Previous investor New Atlantic Ventures also invested in the round. Moda Operandi users can pre-order apparel from designers such as Marc Jacobs, Vera Wang, and Missoni immediately after runway fashion shows.
