Opening Ceremony

Bernardette Velvet Platform

Founded in 2002 by Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, New York-based brand Opening Ceremony offers a well-known platform for emerging and established designers to come together and create. Along with retails spaces worldwide, all of which offer a quirky spin on the traditional shopping experience, OC also has its own in-house line. Since establishing this collection, the line has enjoyed collaborations with designers like Chloe Sevigny, Tretorn sneakers, Maui and Sons, and many others. While many pieces are trend driven and trendsetting, the style is unique, with looks that are equal parts modern and a throwback to days spent thrifting.
