5 years ago, Jacket On Jacket Off, started in my living room as a crazy dream and a desire to create something special for people. Inspired by my hooligan high school and college years, where I literally spiked and studded my entire wardrobe and a crimp from the Mighty Boosh, I came up with a loose plan for a custom made to order jacket boutique. I mean, who doesn’t love an edgy jacket?
Back then, the product was pretty limited and only featured ripped up jean vests and standard jean jackets that were studded and embellished with patches, different textiles, differnt fabrics, chains and anything else that matched the customer’s personality and taste. Since then, JOJO (short for Jacket On Jacket Off) has come a long way.
Now, JOJO’s product has expanded from the punk rock royal attire to a much more expansive selection of items featuring extremely rare or one of a kind dresses, skirts, purses and other accesories. I design most of the fabric used in all of the garments, as well as the surface patterns featured on every accessory from cell phone cases to shower curtains.
