HOTTER ON THE INSIDE: WHY WE GIVE BACK TO DRESS FOR SUCCESS

August 29, 2026 · Ashley Langer

At Hot Tommies, warmth has never been only about temperature. It’s about helping women feel comfortable, confident and ready for whatever comes next.

That’s why we donate $1 from every Hot Tommies vest sold to Dress for Success, an organization whose mission feels deeply connected to our own belief that when women feel supported, they can do incredible things.

More Than What You Wear

Dress for Success is a global nonprofit dedicated to helping women achieve economic independence. While the organization is widely recognized for providing professional clothing, its work goes far beyond getting dressed for an interview.

Through career coaching, workplace development tools, skills training and an ongoing network of support, Dress for Success helps women prepare for employment, succeed at work and build more secure futures for themselves and their families.

Since beginning its work in 1997, Dress for Success has grown to include 130 network members across 15 countries and has helped more than 1.3 million women worldwide.

Experiencing the Mission Firsthand

We recently had the opportunity to spend a volunteer day with Dress for Success, and seeing the organization’s work firsthand made this partnership feel even more meaningful.

There is so much thought, care and dignity behind the experience they create for every woman who walks through their doors. The clothing matters—but so does the encouragement, personal attention and feeling that someone is genuinely invested in your success.

We left the day feeling inspired by the organization, its volunteers and, most importantly, the women it serves.

Every Vest Helps Warm Another Woman’s Path

As a women-founded brand, supporting other women isn’t an add-on to our business. It’s part of who we are.

With every Hot Tommies vest purchased, $1 is donated to Dress for Success to support its work helping women gain confidence, find opportunity and move toward economic independence.

One vest. One dollar. One small action that becomes something much bigger when we do it together.

Thank you for choosing Hot Tommies, and for helping us spread warmth in more ways than one.

Because being Hotter on the Inside means looking out for other women, lifting them up and helping them feel ready to step into what’s next.
