Creating a Femme Fatale DC Pop-Up
*
Femme Fatale DC is a coalition of womxn on a mission - the Femme Fatale DC Pop-Up is an ever-changing physical manifestation of our efforts. Femme Fatale DC holds space to be creative, and witnessed offering opportunity to be brave and supported. Being an entrepreneur with Femme Fatale DC means your ideas are incorporated into the space — your brand and your vision become part of an energetic whole. We do this together. LET’S GO.

The Femme Fatale DC Pop-Up is “by womxn for all” - it is a self-sustaining space, built organically by incredible contributions of spirit, ingenuity and gosh-darn talent. Each iteration of the pop-up is hard fought - we work with development nonprofits and small business organizations to find and secure latent space. Here, friends are made; we support one another through highs and lows - we dance when we need to.

Once a location is locked down THE MAGIC HAPPENS. Womxn come together. The Femme Fatale DC community, transforms drab interiors into a colorfully eclectic and welcoming alternative third space and pop-up retail experience we know and love.

The Femme Fatale DC team works together to present accessible retail opportunities and one of a kind experiences. We join one another to play, to experiment and grow in economic freedom - this time at 401 Massachusetts Ave. NW in Mount Vernon Triangle.
