OUR NEW CO-OWNER
OSV’S NEW CO-OWNER & CREATIVE DIRECTOR — JULIE
This year, I took the exciting step of becoming co-owner of OSV, officially stepping into the role this summer. It’s a journey fueled by passion, hard work, and dreams coming to life. I’m beyond thrilled and deeply grateful for this opportunity.
Since joining OSV in early 2023, I’ve been on an incredible journey that has shaped where I am today. Fashion, art, and design have always been passions of mine, and I thrive on perfecting the details. OSV has become the perfect platform to channel that creativity while learning new ways to express it—whether through curating collections, designing spaces, or enhancing the customer experience. I realized I wanted to fully immerse myself in this world and made the decision to quit school and go full-time, knowing this was where I wanted to put my heart and energy.
The journey to become co-owner has been filled with learning and growth. Each day, I’ve gained new insights—not only about fashion but also about sustainability and running a business. It’s been an ongoing education. With every challenge and new experience, I’ve found my passion for creative expression deepening, and I’ve embraced the opportunity to contribute to OSV in a bigger way. It’s an exciting new chapter, not only for the store but for me personally. I’m growing and taking on new challenges every day.
What makes this transition even more special is the unique partnership I’ve formed with Andrea. We found something extraordinary in each other—a shared vision for what OSV could become and the drive to create something truly meaningful. Together, we’re shaping OSV’s future, and our collaboration has only strengthened since we embarked this new partnership.
There are many new beginnings on this path—opening our second store, expanding our vision, and now my new role as co-owner. But no begin-
ning comes alone. It comes with the support of the people around us, from the team we work with to the community that believes in what we’re creating. This partnership with Andrea, and the encouragement from everyone involved, has made this possible.
This new chapter marks the expansion of OSV—and personally, it represents my own journey of growth and creativity. I’m excited to keep learning, creating, and contributing to the ever-evolving vision of OSV. It’s an ongoing learning curve, and I can’t wait to see where the future takes us.
A special thanks to Andrea for believing in me, and to all of you for following our journey, which continues to give me the opportunity to be creative.
