Sydney-born founder Vanessa Ambrose studied fashion design before working Aussie label Morrissey Edmiston, dressing clients like Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts. Backpacking around the world then led her to land in Santa Cruz in 1998, where she would open her very own shop, Cameron Marks, with her bff, Laura Jones, in 2005. Cameron Marks has since grown from a boutique into a lifestyle brand whose offerings combine everything that Vanessa’s about: minimalist design, wanderlust and sunny vibes.

No.6 was initially launched in 2005, as an under-the-radar shop in the Little Italy/Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan. No.6 has quietly gained a cult following among women in the know for their handmade footwear and aspirational, yet accessible, ready to wear clothing. US-made clogs, clog boots, and printed silk dresses are the brand's signature pieces; recently the brand has rounded out their offerings with tailored, boyish separates and sleek shoes in playful colors. Owner and designer Karin Bereson’s goal is to create pieces that can be worn over and over, easily complementing any woman’s personal style.
