Whitney Dunn Steps Out With the Perfect Pair

The Perfect PairIf you live in Nashville, travel to Nashville, or simply wished you lived in Nashville, chances are you’ve shopped for that perfect pair of boots. Whitney Dunn has — but to little avail. Being the daughter of Brooks & Dunn’s Ronnie Dunn, you’d think she’d have boots, well, to boot.

“I would always get frustrated shopping in town because there wasn’t anywhere to find cool shoes. I wanted funky, off-the-radar designers, shoes that aren’t $1000, but could pass for that quality and look wise.”

After working in the fashion industry in Atlanta for some time, she moved back to Music City to start a business of her own. Dunn and friend Casey Stribling own and operate The Perfect Pair, a one-room store located in the Green Hills area of Nashville. You can find boots, platform heels, belts, clothing, handbags and other accessories that splendidly add to the trendy décor. “We really just focus on trying to be very individual and our product unique,” Dunn said.

While her father Ronnie Dunn may be singing with some of country music’s finest, Whitney is helping dress them. “Oh gosh, let’s see ….Faith Hill, Sara Evans, Martina McBride. We deal with their stylists too. The girls from Little Big Town come in a good bit. We get to know them and they’re just normal fun people. It’s great to see them like the things we picked out. It’s a huge compliment because they’re all so stylish.”

Dunn says she channels her creative instincts through not only the store’s chic attire but also by crafting the shop’s displays, fixtures and other appealing decorations. She compares her creative outlet to that of her father’s. “This store to me is like what his music is to him.”
