23 Skidoo

I began sewing and making clothes for friends and family at age 8. When I entered high school I began to wander out of the suburb in which I was raised to explore the grand city of Cleveland. Immediately, I fell in love with the people, culture, and passion that resided in Greater Cleveland and my dreams of a Cleveland-based clothing company were birthed. I felt that in order for the fashion industry of Cleveland to become all it was meant to be, my first big adventure was to live and study in the home of one of the largest fashion industries in the world: Los Angeles, California. There I completed my degree in fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. Never forgetting my native Cleveland, I returned to the north coast in June 2013 carrying with me the world-wide culture I encountered in L.A. Immediately upon fleeing to the CLE, I began 23 Skidoo, a clothing line for young women with adventurous souls who desire to look and feel feminine on the journey, \"Anywhere Adventure Wear\". The first Holiday Collection was launched in September 2013 and now 23 Skidoo is successfully moving into it\'s second season of business, excited to feature a bit of menswear this time around.
