The founding story the historical record tells is a family retail story retold for the internet. The company founder Richard Saghian learned about offering value to customers from his father, who owned women's retail stores; he spent his summers working in them and knew he wanted to do something similar, but in his own way. He opened the first Fashion Nova store in 2006 at the Panorama Mall in Panorama City, California. The store came first, in other words - the online phenomenon was built on a working value retailer, not the other way round.
