Rebecca Minkoff believes in taking risks. Because she knew she always wanted to design, she skipped college and headed straight for New York, where she knew no one. She started her business on a shoestring and then brought her brother in when her first collection started to click. Minkoff embraced social media long before most designers put any faith in power of online sales. She built her business without big moments on the red carpet, but with constant posting on Instagram of her easy, street savvy fashion. The result is a collection that looks fresh, accessible, wearable, breezy and absolutely right for this brand-new moment in time.
