As both a brand and style-setter, VFILES has grown to be a company we all admire. The brand is notable for doing so many different things so well, such as producing a fashion show every season with up-and-coming brands (like Ground Zero, Rushemy Botter, Sanchez-Kane, Song Seoyoon and Alessandro Trincone from this past SS17 season), having an e-commerce and brick and mortar store in New York City, and collaborating with designers and celebrities, like Justin Bieber for his Purpose World Tour. And because behind every amazing brand are some pretty amazing people, we wanted to introduce you to the three talented women at VFILES who are a huge part of running the show. Meet Rox Brown, Danielle Greco and Francisca Magis, who are some of the most important faces and brains behind all the incredible stuff VFILES produces. We got the chance to sit down with them, and, well, can you say #girlsquad goals? Learn more about or new favorite ladies in the gallery below.
