Since 1998, Stacia has been making small batch designs using recycled materials. Designer Stacy Johnson, a pioneer in slow fashion, crafts each piece by hand in sunny California. Effortless clothing to wear now and always.
Founder Story I started Stacia out of my Brooklyn brownstone in 1998 cutting patterns on the hardwood floor. I opened a small boutique and atelier on Smith Street in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn. From day one, I used dead stock fabrics and recycled materials to create my designs, cutting and sewing right in the shop. In 2004, I moved my family to Santa Monica, CA to live the quintessential beach lifestyle .
Balancing lifestyle, family and my passion for making clothes has led me to focus my designs on "what I need now" and creating small batch products that let me flex my creativity.
Trends come and go and the fashion business is always changing, but my mission has always stayed true. Keep it small, be creative and be conscious of every piece that I make. I hope you enjoy the process and wear my designs with love.
