Community
THE FOUNDERS
Onyx & Ivy was launched in 2019 by neighbours turned friends Jess and Gem. Shortly after, Carly joined the team, and Onyx & Ivy was born. The goal was simple; an all inclusive accessory brand, and a creative outlet that was desperately needed for these three. Armed with sewing machines, iPads, and the ambition to succeed, Jess, Gem, and Carly started creating at their kitchen tables.
Their passion and commitment to creating and curating products that aim to empower any person through each season of their life has remained at the forefront of what Onyx & Ivy strives to do. Today, the brand has grown into so much more than they could have possibly dreamed; a place that fosters community and connection, with focuses on inclusivity, mental health, rare disease advocacy, and social issues.
COMMUNITY IMPACT
Being able to spread awareness and support all aspects of our community is an essential part of why we started Onyx+Ivy. We value having a platform to be able to contribute and invest back into our community. We work towards achieving this through donations, product promotions, and sharing the knowledge we have gained through continuous education.
