XCVI was founded in 1996 (or XCVI in roman numerals) from the back of a mom-and-pop clothing boutique on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles, California. Together with designer Lilia Gorodnitski, the Zeltzer family manifested a shared vision of casual clothing that enrich women’s lives with joy and ease.

For nearly 25 years, they've continued to develop wearable, breathable, movable clothing for women who believe that style should not compromise comfort
