ABOUT US
Frankie’s on the Park is the ultimate boutique shopping experience for tweens, teens and beyond! After seeing a void in the market for high quality, trendy styling options for girls 8 and up, Founder Lisa Burik launched Frankie’s on the Park in 2008 with its flagship location in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood. Inspired by her oldest daughter, Frankie, who had always used fashion as a way to express her individuality, Lisa’s vision was to make Frankie’s a place for every girl to define her own sense of style, incorporating the must-have items of every season, as well as high-quality basics for their personally curated wardrobes.

In 2010, to the delight of girls everywhere, Frankie’s launched its e-commerce site, frankiesonthepark.com, and in 2013, Frankie’s added a second store location on Montana Avenue in the boutique shopping district of Santa Monica, California. As girls across the country have begged for a little bit of Frankie’s in their hometowns, we have brought seasonal pop-up store experiences to girls in New York City, San Francisco, Boston and are adding more every season! As Frankie’s has grown, so has our Frankie’s social media following, featuring the latest looks from our Frankie’s Girl Squads, contests, stories, gift-giving ideas and so much content girls don’t want to miss!

In addition to offering the latest trends in everyday dressing, Frankie’s Dress Shop has become the destination for girls shopping for dresses for Bat/Bar Mitzvahs (theirs and others), graduations, ballroom dance, homecoming and other special occasions. We offer a carefully curated collection of the types of styles we know girls are looking for, paired with private, one-on-one appointments with our expert dress specialists (in-person or virtual). We make sure every girl (and their Mom!) has the most amazing special occasion shopping experience and walks away with a dress they truly love!

A core part of our mission has always been to use Frankie’s on the Park as a vehicle to give back to our communities in ways that benefit kids and involve our Frankie’s girls and their families. It is so important to us that every Frankie’s girl has the opportunity to learn the joy of giving back and to see that giving back can be as simple as participating in a charity Fashion Show, or helping gift a girl less fortunate than them a special party dress. Frankie’s has produced the University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital Kids Fashion Show for ten years and hosts annual dress donation events at UCLA Mattel Children’s Hospital, La Rabida Children’s Hospital, among many other giving events. We are ALWAYS open to supporting charitable activities that are near and dear to our customer’s hearts and cultivating the spirit of giving in all of our Frankie’s girls!
