HOW IT ALL STARTED
Did you know? One O.A.K. is a monogram for One Of A Kind? That is exactly the type of products we carry. Because we design all of our clothing, everything we carry is 100% one of a kind. Everything is made of upmost quality within the borders of the United States.
1OAK began in 2015 as My Fabric Closet. It all started with one uncontrolled stash of fabric. I worked for my grandmother at a fabric shop and also had a love for fabric.I loved to be able to be the very first person to get my hands on all the latest, newest, and greatest fabrics and be able to sew a piece of clothing before anyone was able to get their hands on it. Little did I know, my small home run side hobby of a business would turn it into a clothing business and I become a modern clothing designer myself.Although, starting and owning a business is something I've always dreamed of, I neverthought I was creative enough to launch my own clothing line. As the interest starting expanding, so did the business. I saw the ever growing need to provide our communityand beyond with modest swim and athletic wear. Knee length skort options were always very limited. Beautiful designs and patterns were always a rare find. Most skorts available were solid colored. Over time, I heard multiple people discussing their issues with not being able to find long enough skirts. #tallgirlproblems I heard others complain of skirts being too long.#shortgirlproblems That's when I started racking my brain. How can I answer those cries and fulfill their desires? I then set out on a mission to search for seamstresses. I consider it a blessing I was able to find a few reliable, top notch seamstresses to get me started.With being able to offer our customers a custom length option, it drew many people people to our small business. Frankly, it is one of the main reasons our customer base LOVE One Oak. After finding several seamstresses, I then created my own patterns.I am forever grateful for each and every seamstress here at One Oak. Most of our seamstresses are stay at home moms who are looking for a little extra income to support their families. They are grateful for your business and appreciate that extra cash.Unfortunately, they can't stay forever. But that's okay, life moves on, their children get married, they have other responsibilities, and other obligations arise.We have had multiple seamstresses over the years since the beginning of One Oak,and couldn't have survived without any of them. We are who we are today because of their hard work and countless hours they have given.
