Our story

We kept noticing the same thing: the outfit people remember is never the beige one. It's the cherry-red cardigan at book club, the floral dress at a friend's birthday lunch, the bright set that gets a "where's that from?" in the coffee line. Josie Austin exists for those pieces.

About the name

Josie is friendly, a little playful and easy to say. Austin is a nod to a city known for color and personality. It's the spirit we like, not where we're from: Josie Austin isn't a real person, and we aren't based in Texas.
