Roxanne and Gina Colabelli’s involvement in fashion began at an early age. The boutique owner’s, Gina and Roxanne, grew up in a fashion conscious household, from their grandparents to their mother. Roxanne and Gina were familiar with wearing custom clothing growing up. As children, they cultivated their knowledge of fashion by watching their grandmother create customized masterpieces. They created clothes for their dolls from the excess fabric that was not being used.
