behind the brand
Welcome to our world of believing in dreams and celebrating the magic around us. We are so happy to have you here.
Ivy City was founded in 2015 by dress-obsessed mothers & friends chasing the dream to create a dress brand unlike any other --- one where everyone was invited, seen, heard, and celebrated.
Creating unique, quality pieces with timeless coverage is our love language. Making children's sizes so we can match our littles is the icing on the cake.
We are proud to be the first dress brand to offer over 20 sizes in a single design and are excited to continue to expand our brand in beautiful ways.

She is a licensed cosmetologist who decided to follow her dream of creating Ivy City with her long-time BFF, Whitney, back in 2015. Designing beautiful and functional dresses is her passion, along with all things fashion and home décor. She is always up for fun with family and friends. Tash is a hopeless romantic and always has her nose in a good book.
