Coco and Breezy are 20-year-old identical twin accessory designers from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Already making a name for them selves on the underground and online fashion scene, the twins have always defined themselves by their collective individuality. Coming from a city not known for its contributions to the fashion world. Working at the clothing store Metro Park, it helped them gain knowledge of customer service and keeping good clientele. Coco and Breezy were eager to learn all that they could about the world of fashion, and once they had a taste of it they quickly realized they wanted to do more. Always eager to work in an environment that would challenge them and amplify their professional growth.
Never actually believed on having a business as designers, the twins realized they had something huge on their hands and eventually put up a website. Known for its sharp edginess and attention to detail, the brand Coco and Breezy was born. Never being separated for more than 24 hours, they quickly took on the dual responsibilities of running their very own brand. Orders came in from all over the country and the Coco and Breezy mythology spread throughout the digital universe. In September 2009 after running the business for only 3 months, the girls decided that it was time to make the move to New York City. With very little time to prepare, they quit their jobs, sold their car and the decision was made. Armed only with their faith, and with no job or living opportunities in place, the pair bravely made the trip to the fashion capital.
Within days, the twins took the city by storm, literally stopping traffic with their signature styles and confident attitudes. Celebrities like Kelly Osbourne, Serena Williams, Nicki Minaj , and more have been seen wearing their shades. Coco and Breezy have been featured in press such as, NY times, Vouge Itailia, Paper Mag, Vibe Mag, and more. Not satisfied with more overnight popularity, Coco and Breezy are already preparing themselves for expansion and longevity in the fashion world at large. While making a living strictly from sales, the two are working on their new collection, which will be a reinvention of the infamous styles they are already known for.
With their sights set on the future, the pair are fully aware of the hard work in store. Not tempted by the bright lights and the big city, they are in control of developing what is sure to become a lasting name in style and fashion. Learning as they go, they are never comfortable and constantly challenge themselves to raise the creative bar. Coco and Breezy represent the new generation of iconoclasts who are redefining youth culture. Totally happy in each others company, they live in a world all their own – We’re just visiting! They currently reside in Brooklyn NY.
