In a heartfelt message shared on Instagram, Adam Frisby, the founder of In The Style, revealed his departure from the company he formed more than a decade ago. He admitted that the decision had not come easily, reflecting his deep connection to the business. Frisby stated, ‘This really hasn’t been an easy decision for me and since stepping down as CEO at the end of 2023 I’ve tried my hardest to continue to make things work, but despite my best efforts, it’s now a decision I’ve had to make.’ His emotional attachment to the brand he built and its reputable standing in the market was palpable as he reminisced about his journey.

Despite the positive turnaround, Frisby concludes that his journey with the brand has run its course.
Expressing gratitude and a hint of nostalgia, Frisby addressed his Instagram followers, emphasizing his love for the company founded from his bedroom in 2013. His message included a commitment to future endeavors, stating, ‘However, this isn’t the end for me in business and when the time is right I look forward to taking you all every step of the way with me on the next journey.’ Frisby’s words underpin his optimism and forward-thinking mindset, as he hints at potential future ventures without divulging specific plans. His followers can expect updates on his entrepreneurial pursuits in due time.
