Teresa Hodges is the founder of clothing brand BLAK, and Rebecca Anderson is the founder of footwear brand Chaos & Harmony.
Can you talk me through the main ways that you bring together your brands - BLAK and Chaos & Harmony?
Teresa: We have two collaborative boutiques branded BLAKCHAOS, which are in Mount Maunganui and Ponsonby. The stores incorporate the full collections of our brands, showcasing each in separate areas and they're also merchandised together creating stories for the customer. Each brand works separately in the background within our own BLAK and Chaos & Harmony companies, then come together within the stores.
Rebecca: The focus for the BLAK and Chaos & Harmony collaboration was purely around a retail concept, so it's creating an intimate experience for customers where they're able to walk away with a complete style or look.
