"I am thankful to Vivian and Velvet Slipper Divine for supporting me in
developing my client base and being so gracious as to introduce me to
the Aspen fashion and social scene," commented Jonathan Blake. "Vivian
and her Velvet Slipper Divine concept are great matches for me because
they go to key markets that are important to my demographic and my
growth plans. Aspen has the enviable reputation as a popular luxury
destination for Houstonians and discriminating consumers from all over
the world. Aspen shoppers expect quality construction, luxurious fabrics
and captivating designs, and they tend to be open and accepting of new
designers."
Only 21 at the time, Jonathan Blake launched a line of women's couture
fashions in October 2012 in Houston and is gaining popularity throughout
the United States and overseas. He introduced handbags in April 2014.
