Designer/Creator Stacy Morgenstern Igel has had a clear vision of her career path since nursery school, where she outfitted her pre–K classmates with make–shift designs and home–made charm bracelets. She honed these skills further at UW–Madison where she triple-majored in Fashion Design, Retail and Business. Ms. Morgenstern laid the groundwork for her own company's success by designing for mega-brand Izod as well as working closely with innovative designers and icons such as Zandra Rhodes, Elie Tahari and Elsa Klensch.
Boy Meets Girl ®, created by Stacy Morgenstern Igel, is all about comfortable clothes that make you feel happy and sexy. Inspired by a variety of eclectic influences – ranging from unique vintage styles to the cutting edge music and art scenes of downtown NYC, and all the way back to the glamorous Hollywood icons of the roaring 20's – Boy Meets Girl® radiates an effortless lifestyle brand. The Boy Meets Girl® girl is every girl – she can define herself hundreds of ways – as eclectic, as edgy, as demure or as casual cool, or perhaps some combination of them all. With Boy Meets Girl® there is something that fits every personal style.
In 2008, Ms. Morgenstern Igel's signature brand Boy Meets Girl® was acquired by Oved Apparel, one of the largest makers in the apparel industry and the force behind Mecca, Akademiks, PRPS Jeans, Company 81 and Modern Culture. With greater expertise and capital, Boy Meets Girl® will build upon its success in what Ms. Morgenstern Igel deems her "couture comfort" and "chic" basics lines — t–shirts, tank tops and cozy sweat shirts — as well as continue to develop her life style collection of immaculately constructed day–to–evening dresses, tunics, jumpers, sweaters and bottoms that radiate style.
Boy Meets Girl® has been seen on many fashion–forward TV shows such as Gossip Girl, Sex & the City, Heroes, America's Next Top Model, The OC and MTV's "The Hills". Ms. Morgenstern Igel's designs have been featured in major national publications including In Style, Us Weekly, Cosmopolitan, Lucky, People, Teen Vogue, Seventeen, the New York Times, New York Post and WWD. Celebrities also covet the collection for the label's versatility — Ms. Morgenstern Igel's clientele reads like a Who's Who of young Hollywood: Paris Hilton, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Eva Mendes, Michelle Williams, Rachel Bilson, Anne Hathaway, Ali Larter, Hillary Duff, Mischa Barton, Kelly Ripa, Gabrielle Union, Rose McGowan, Vanessa Minnillo, Carmen Electra, Jennifer Garner and Lindsay Lohan.
Boy Meets Girl® is sold in high–end specialty and department stores worldwide including Bloomindales, Saks Fifth Avenue, Lisa Kline & Intuition.
