YOUTH MOVEMENT
The Generic Youth store in Costa Mesa sells its own label that offers 14 to 25 year olds a niche brand that's affordable and they can call their own.
Jeff Yokoyama, founder of Modern Amusement, and his 17-year-old daughter Coco created Generic Youth as an alternative to mainstream fashions and labels. Generic Youth apparel offers youthful silhouettes, artsy details, and one-of-a-kind fabric combinations.
The Westside Costa Mesa store also serves as a research and development studio where the father-and-daughter team brainstorm ideas for upcoming collections and test styles.
Former St. John Knits tailor Sergio Chiguit expertly handcrafts each garment right in the shop. He ads premium tailoring not found in mass-marketed apparel. Each piece is different, whether it’s an irregular placed pocket on a tee, recycled fabric appliquéd on a hoodie sweatshirt, over-dyed fabric, or a variety of blank tees just waiting to be silk-screened.
You can choose from Bermuda shorts, nylon shorts, button-down summer shirts, skinny leg denim, and a spring girls’ line with stretch French terry pants, appliquéd jersey tees, and more.
Perhaps best of all, this kind of style, quality and uniqueness comes at a price far below similar lines. Plus, Jeff and Coco are super friendly and customer oriented.
Open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. 1609 Pomona Ave., Suite A. in Costa Mesa. 949.351.5389.
