Born and raised in Houston, Texas, designer Vi Hoang always had an affinity for the arts. With a degree in Fine Arts and specialization in Interior Design, she spent a few years working with Interiors before finally making the leap to New York City in order to pursue her dreams in Fashion. Hoang attended the Fashion Institute of Technology before starting her own line.

When Hoang began her womenswear line of special occasion dresses and gowns in 2009, she noticed a void in the market for well made, unique, high quality, and fashion forward dresses. Hoang set out to change the special occasion wear industry, and so Dolly Pearl was born.

The line exudes romance, charm, thoughtfulness, and femininity–everything Vi’s Southern roots mean to her. In addition, she felt it was very important to bring a fresh, modern, and fashion forward approach to her designs. This represented the inspirational, exciting, and unpredictable time she spent living in New York City.

Hoang spends her time traveling between Houston, Texas and New York City, staying inspired and bringing modernity and romanticism to women all over the world.
