 Where are you from?

  Los Angeles, CA, USA.
 What's your educational background?
  After gaining her Bachelor of Arts degree in Law and Industrial Psychology from South Africa’s prestigious University of Witwatersrand, Janice was accepted to the world renowned Gordon Flack Davidson School of Design, from which she graduated with honors and earned the Graduate of the Year award for a collection that would set the tone for her professional pursuits in the coming years.

In 1990, sisters Diane Levin & Janice Levin-Krok founded a shop together in LA which was officially branded Poleci in 1993. By 2007 they had expanded worldwide and received numerous awards including 'California Designer of the Year'.
 What is the concept of your label?
  A masterful blend of textures, colors and shapes is what has captured the attention of women all over the world.  "I enjoy the challenge of creating an accessible collection for today’s urban lifestyle… a sculptured, modern and practical look which women want to wear.  It is the woman who wears our clothes that is important."
 What message do your creations send?
  "Poleci is an attitude… it is timeless, cutting edge and sophisticated, but not conventional… what I like to call minimalism… with a twist."
