Have you been touched by TAG?
The demand for fashion customs is at an all time high this year and Touched by TAG is here for all of your styling necessities.
CEO and founder of JoonYah’s Styling Kingdom Troy Gaskins also goes by the name Touched By Tag. This past weekend Touched By Tag’s custom apparel has been continuously seen throughout FAMU’s homecoming week.
From custom fringe, distressed tees to killer outfits for the hottest events, Touched by Tag gets it right every time.
Gaskins’ passion for his work is what sets him apart from others. Long hours and late nights are two things that this CEO doesn't shy away from. When asked how he started his business and what it means to him, Troy had a lot to say.
“I took a week to myself and prayed the whole week for God to reveal my path to me. After sitting down and thinking about it, I realized that fashion was a part of my everyday life. After googling potential entrepreneur opportunities, I settled on being a stylist. It's personal for me, I like to get to know my clients and build a personal relationship with them which makes it easier for us to connect on a personal level as far as styling them goes,” says Gaskins.
“I feel like if you want something, you'll do whatever it takes to get it done. I'm dedicated to what I do, I have to be. Styling is therapeutic for me.”
Gaskins has an array of clientele varying from professors, to students and even community organizations. In addition to creating custom apparel, Touched by Tag also allows customers to purchase pre-picked outfits from “Tag’s Closet”. Whatever the demand, Touched by Tag can supply.
Valencia Houston, third-year chemistry major recalls her experience with Touched by Tag.
“Troy was amazing! He was very friendly and personal yet very professional. He made sure he took his time to understand your own sense of style and also the look you were going for. He's extremely creative. He took old clothes that I have not worn I forever, clothes that I actually forgot I owned and put them together in a way that made you feel like you were wearing a brand new outfit. Being styled by him was a great experience, I also gained a new friend”.
Third year Business Administration and Theatre and performing arts major Michelle Marva Johnson, also had great things to say about Touched by Tag.
“Troy is a very personable person. From seeing his work done on other people, I knew that he could definitely style but it was his personality, patience, dedication, and creativity that made me want to keep receiving his styling expertise. It was the best decision to get TOUCHED BY TAG!”
From simple and cute to bold and daring, Touched by Tag is here to help customers reach their full potential.
