Fast fashion brand OUTZIDR has secured INR 27 Cr (around $3 Mn) in a Pre-Series A funding round led by RTP Global, with participation from existing investor Stellaris Venture Partners.

The startup plans to deploy the fresh proceeds to fund its expansion plans, particularly to launch its first offline store by March 2026 and expand its design, operations, and technology teams.

“This fundraise is a strong validation of our mission to become the everyday fashion choice for Gen Z women — and of the incredible team and opportunity we’re building for,” cofounder and chief executive Nirmal Jain said.

Jain, along with Mani Kant Mani and Justin Mario launched OUTZIDR in 2024. The fast fashion online platform has been active in the market with its offerings since February 2025, selling via its D2C platform, as well as on fashion ecommerce platforms like Myntra, Nykaa Fashion and AJIO.

The startup offers western and party wear for women in the age group of 17-27 years.

The fresh funding comes after the brand raised INR 30 Cr in a seed funding round from Stellaris Venture Partners and a host of angel investors, in April.

The brand claimed that, in just five months, it has gained more than 100K customers, achieved retention rates 1.5X above industry benchmarks and introduced over 8,000 styles on its website.

OUTZIDR has an overall headcount of 22 employees.

The development also comes at a time when there has been an increased interest among consumers towards fast fashion and the growing trend of quick fashion delivery. Platforms such as NEWME, KNOT, Berrylush and Slikk are the new favourites of GenZ consumers, and OUTZIDR has been cracking its space into this market.

Fast fashion has been one of the few outperforming sectors in India’s retail market since 2023, and the category grew at a much faster rate of 30-40% in 2024, according to the RedSeer report.

About a month ago, quick fashion startup KNOT raised $3 Mn from Kae Capital, Sparrow Capital and Boundless VC, among others, to double down on product development, expand beyond Mumbai and grow its roster of brand partnerships.
