It’s been 11 years. Already. I can barely believe that time has gone by that quickly. I’ve been incredibly blessed to have worked with so many wonderful people, and have met so many incredible friends and customers along the way. I came to this business knowing nothing of the industry. I’ve made loads of mistakes, but been a part of (along with many other brilliant women) the creation of something I really love, and am very proud of. Melange is not just about beautiful clothes. I do love clothes, no doubt about that, but more importantly I love being surrounded by beautiful, spirited women, that are dynamic, empowered, and connected. I absolutely love the fact that we look at our customer list and we actually KNOW the people on the list…it isn’t just about nameless sales, or acquisitions. We have made friends and special connections, and have been bettered for it.
I truly thank all of you who have patiently tolerated our growing pains thru the years, and tolerated all the other “real life” thing that our Melange family has weathered together, and that our friends and customers have seen from afar. Our years as a business has been pebbled with babies being born, marriages, school, cancer, divorce, death, sick kids…you name it, and it has happened over the years. But we’ve stuck together, had each other’s back, given each other the support we needed to get thru, and Melange has remained a positive “purpose” that mattered to us, and that never wavered. What we do matters, and our customers have made it so.
Thank you, with our deepest gratitude.
