A Little History on Forever 21


Don Won Chang and his wife Jin Sook are the founders of the OH So FABOLOUS Forever 21, originally named Fashion 21, in 1984. The first store was located at 5637 N. Figueroa St. in Los Angeles and surprising it is still operating today under it's original name. The first store was very small, only 900 square feet. But little did they know that it would bloom into such a HUGE success.


The sales within the first years increased drastically. The name soon changed from Fashion 21 to Forever 21. With time the business expanded adding new stores every six months in different locations. The size of the stores went from 900 square feet to eventually 24,000 square feet. In 2005 Forever 21 had around 355 stored all over the globe. Forever 21 is now making billions of dollars. $$$$$$


Today Forever 21 has turned into a huge chain of stores. They are known for there stylish and trendy clothing and accessories and in my opinion it is the best store around. With this much success so far I can only imagine how much more there is to come for Forever 21.
