About our Exclusive Designs
Her Story
Joanie Char, the first Chinese designer in San Francisco, has been in business since the 1960's. Joanie Char was born in China and immigrated to San Francisco in the early '60s and she brought with her love and enthusiasm for women's fashion. In the 1960-70's when polyester was the primary fabric used, she was the first to use natural fibers. In the '80s she went wholesale and since the '90s she reopened her own boutique providing customers unique designs and personalized customer service.
