Hi, I’m Nicole Marie, founder of MadreForte—a women-owned boutique blending empowerment with everyday fashion. With 14+ years in sales and marketing, I’ve learned the power of confidence, and my passion for style inspired me to create a brand that uplifts women. As a wife, mom, and corporate professional who travels nationwide, I know the challenge of juggling life while still wanting to feel put-together. MadreForte, meaning “Strong Mother,” reflects my Italian and Croatian roots and my belief that what you wear should make you feel strong, beautiful, and unstoppable. Every piece—from affirmation sweatshirts to curated boutique drops—is created for women who do it all. You can shop MadreForte online anytime or visit us in person at Painted Tree Boutique in Bloomingdale, Booth H14. My mission is simple: to help women feel seen, supported, and confident every day.
