Intern Spotlight - Behind the Seams of Something Big

From Jaded to Activated


This summer, I brought on a team of young women who were hungry to learn — and they’ve already proven they’re not here to play. These girls dove headfirst into everything: marketing, styling, content, leadership, sewing, and strategy. They’ve been building the foundation of what Jaded stands for — not just clothes, but a movement.

And when I say we don’t do fluff internships, I mean it.

They just wrapped their first real industry experience behind the scenes at OC Swimwear Fashion Week — helping prep runway looks, coordinating models, checking lineups, steaming garments, and keeping the chaos under control. It was fast, messy, hot, unfiltered — and they didn’t flinch.

They helped make magic for designers like Melissa Pellone, Lena Milinovic, Fodada Clothing, and Islander Swim. Every model that walked out was styled, coached, and launched by our team. They handled it like pros.

This isn’t the highlight. It’s just the first rep.
This is what being Jaded looks like.

Jaded is proud of not just what they’ve done, but who they’re becoming.

And trust me, this is just the warm-up.
We’re cooking up something bold, fresh, and very Jaded — new designs, a campaign shoot in the works, and a partnership that’s louder and more fearless than ever before!

Can’t drop all the details just yet… but just know:
The future of the Jaded Journey and fashion doesn’t whisper.
It walks in, takes up space, and makes change look good.

Upcoming Events:

You’re Invited - Boss Ladies Business Mixer

Join the Jaded team on August 15th for an inspiring evening at the Boss Ladies Business Mixer- a complimentary networking event designed to ignite connection, confidence, and collaboration among powerhouse women from all industries. This isn’t your average networking night. This is for the bold ones, the women building something from scratch, stepping out of survival mode, and walking into the version of themselves they’ve been holding back.

We’re bringing together a room full of real women doing real things. Whether you’re launching your first brand, building your team, or figuring it out day-by-day, taking the leap to something new is possible, and you belong at this table.

Expect connection.
Expect real testimonies and lessons.
Expect conversation that will inspire you.
Expect to walk away ignited.

We’ve also invited vendors to set up a booth about their business to allow you to pick up items you didn’t realize you needed. Jaded will also be showcasing our signature restroom-ready jumpsuits at the Jaded booth (because looking good and feeling unstoppable shouldn’t come with a bathroom struggle). And to keep it real? We’ve lined up speakers who know what it means to lead with fire:

  • Jade, Founder of Jaded – will be sharing how I built a brand rooted in purpose, problem-solving, and women owning their power

  • Marisol Herrera – K-Beauty pro & top realtor sharing her mindset on scaling business internationally

  • Sophirian Kim – Salon owner, author, and mother of 3, and 2024’s Miss Entrepreneur will be sharing how she’s building a platform for women to share their voice

  • Emily Whilcomb – Wellness coach and mentor showing us how to chase ambition without burning out

This isn’t just about swapping business cards.
This is about building the kind of sisterhood that shifts your circle and your future. Come and join us as we elevate together.

Let’s link, build, and rise together.

We’ll be showcasing our signature restroom-ready jumpsuits at the Jaded booth, celebrating both fashion and function. Plus, you won’t want to miss a powerful lineup of speakers who embody the spirit of leadership and resilience:

 

What’s next:

Jaded x Forever Hers Pageant

This partnership? It’s personal.

At Jaded, we’ve always believed fashion is more than fabric, it’s TRANSFORMATION. And when the team at Forever Hers approached us to be part of their pageant experience, we knew this wasn’t just a “show”, it was the moment.

Forever Hers isn’t your typical pageant.
It’s rooted in faith, purpose, and powerful storytelling. These women aren’t just here to look good — they’re showing up to lead change. They speak, serve, and advocate for real issues. They walk in with purpose and walk out with movement behind them. It’s a platform where women are empowered, accepted, and encouraged to stand up for change- everything that Jaded stands for.

Jaded has been chosen to design a custom collection for their Galaxy-Themed Pageant, replacing the swimsuit segment with our iconic jumpsuits. That’s right, we’re turning the moment women used to be most exposed into a moment where they feel most powerful.

And the best part? This exclusive line will debut not once, but twice- first at LA Fashion Week on Oct 11 at the Beverly Center, and again on Oct 12 at the Forever Hers stage in partnership with SAS Studios.

From the runway to real life, this is what it looks like when women stop shrinking and start showing up.

We’re not just dressing bodies. We’re dressing women for the change they’re called to lead.

👑 Join us August 16th at the Forever Hers Launch Party — and see what happens when purpose meets power.

A Final Note

Thank You

To everybody who’s been with us from the beginning—and to those just finding us now—thank you.

Whether you wore a piece, shared a post, whispered encouragement, or are just watching from afar, your presence matters.

This brand was built to solve real problems, to tell real stories, and to remind women that confidence and functionality can exist in the same outfit.

As we step into Year 2, we’re doing it with more intention, more community, and more clarity than ever before. And we want you with us.

Stay close. Watch us build. Join the movement.
This is just the beginning.

Until next time,

🖤
Jade Phou
Founder, Jaded
