5 Young Entrepreneurs Taking The NYC Fashion World By Storm

Native New Yorker and designer, Michelle Madonna, began her company, Flower Children Only, after creating her first flower halo in 2012, when she was only 23. Shortly after, a full collection of floral headbands in a rainbow of colors and styles was launched. After attending her first music festival as a teenager, Michelle loved how she was welcomed by a community of strangers united by a love for music, a passion for life, and a feeling of uninhibited freedom. Flower Children Only is driven by a portfolio of celebrity fans and prominent social media influencers. Celebrities that have worn and continue to support Flower Children Only include, Kendall Jenner, Katy Petty, Lucy Hale, Poppy Delevingne, Paris Hilton, Christina Milian, Julianne Hough, and many more. Michelle is truly a flower child at heart and has created a community garden of “flower children” who have quickly blossomed into an incredible and loyal following to her brand. Michelle sells her flower halos and meow crowns online HERE and in Rebecca Minkoff locations (NYC and San Francisco) with plans to keep expanding by introducing new styles, colors, textures and designs into her future collections as well as growing her retailer list.
