Sneex is Sara Blakely's heel-meets-sneaker innovation: footwear that looks like a stiletto and feels like a sneaker. Engineered with a sneaker sole and foot support hidden within a dress shoe silhouette, Sneex is designed to solve the problem every woman in heels knows too well — elegance that comes at the cost of your feet.
Spanx is the shapewear and apparel brand Sara Blakely invented in 2000 after cutting the feet off her pantyhose before a party. Starting with $5,000 in savings and no fashion or business background, she built Spanx into a global brand that redefined the shapewear category, expanded into full apparel and activewear, and was valued at $1.2B when Blackstone acquired a majority stake in 2021.
