Specialties
The signature style and original Hawaii made products of Ivy & Co. creations reflect inspiration found right at home in Hawaii. Born and raised in the islands, Ivy & Co. founder and designer Rebecca Owen mixes her style of retro Hawaiiana with hip accents, likely influenced by her stints living in trendy Orange County, California, and overseas in Europe.

Meet the Business Owner: Rebecca O.
Born & raised on the island of Maui, Rebecca's life is immersed in a variety of creative work. Her early years in Hawaii were spent rigorously training in dance, performing in concerts, musicals, and eventually on hip hop teams in L.A. & Europe. She still makes a living teaching in the dance & theatre industry. "From the moment I clock in at my 'real job' as a professional dance instructor & choreographer, the creative juices have to flow," she says. "If not, the dance studio dissolves into a drab classroom and the stage darkens into an empty, lifeless platform. And despite the daily need to harness creativity to pay the bills, when I get a day off from the day-to-day studio grind I cannot fathom abandoning my creativity. I still love to create -- but for real life and people rather than for performers on a stage." Rebecca lives with her husband, 7 year old daughter Ivy-- the shop's namesake, and their dog Godiva.
