It began with a nickname.

The Sister’s Downtown shopfront on Ridgeley Street

Growing up in the South, her parents always called her Sister. It is a common Southern nickname, and it stayed, even though she never had a sister.

When she opened a boutique of her own, she wanted a name that felt personal and close to her roots. So the family nickname went over the door, apostrophe and all.

just a brother!

She opened the shop two months after graduating high school, and she still picks every piece herself.

Three things we hold to

Personal

She picks every piece herself. Customers are people she knows, never order numbers.

Considered

Fewer, better pieces. Quality and style that feel special without being overly expensive.

Fresh

New arrivals every Friday, so there is always a reason to come back.
