Growing up in Paris, France made a very big impact on the entrepreneurial spirit of Sherwin Ross.
While his skills as a saucier, guarde mange, and grill chef were promising, and his role as Berger in the 20th Anniversary tour of "Hair" was a big hit, it was obvious Ross was destined for more. He had enough of asking his boss for time off to go to an audition, and his Berger hair was getting out of control. With a new found sense of self, Ross thought, "Self, wouldn't it be great to own your own business?" And thus, "She's Got Legs," a hip-hugger, stretch cotton, lycra bellbottom and legging company, strutted her way
In 1995, a chance encounter introduced Sherwin to Alex Ok, owner of Pandora Casuals. Impressed by Sherwin's energy, passion, and knowledge of fashion, Alex asked Ace to join Pandora Casuals as International Sales and Marketing Manager to help design, sell, and brand the Pandora label.
Demonstrating his business savvy, Sherwin changed Pandora's label to the short and sweet, One Clothing. The inspired move proved to be smart - gross sales for the company quickly topped $100 million. Ross' ambition led to yet another business venture in 2000 with the birth of Ace Ross Studios Inc that designed and produced lounge wear for juniors and tweens. The "teeny bop"ular line sold to Dillard's, Fred Segal's, and Ace's account list of 800 active boutiques.
Sherwin's experience in the fashion world, helped him develop an uncanny sense to spot trend. With his foresight and creative passion, Sherwin was able to create successful markets for his clothing lines.
Sherwin was instrumental in creating junior trends from 1989 till 2000. Communication and teamwork with the design team. Taking massive action to produce and eventually One was shipping 750,000 pieces a month, selling millions of tee shirts with chest stripes, camouflage, angels, navel breaker low rise bell bottoms and velvet items in the mass budget to moderate price point market place.
AR Studios Inc.(2000-2003)
As a business owner, making the daily decisions, he accepts his responsibility for making wrong decisions . It doesn't cost any more to work with the best, it can cost you everything if you don't.
Ross worked hands on with his design team, working patterns, wash houses, printing and shrinkage. He developed and manufactured denim, garment dye mineral wash french terry, tie dyes, yoga wear and novelty fashion items. The Studio developed it's own prints and stories for lounge wear.
