About Me

"LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF, HOW YOU ROBE IS ONLY AN ACCESSORY TO THE SOUL" - me, Jennifer Ramsay. Welcome to my world. Echochic just celebrated 12 years in business this spring. After outgrowing the south street location into it's seventh year there i decided to move the store to it's current more posh location. Centered in the french quarter of Rittenhouse Square we cater to philly's eclectic mix of fashionistas and celebrities. I am of French Morrocan & Russian descent. My hippie mother wanted to name me Echo, my father didn't but instead they called me Sunshine, hence where the name comes from. Echo (ek-o) = a nymph whose unrequited love for Narcissis caused her to pine away untill nothing was left but her voice to be heard. Chic (sh-ek) = French; sophisticated, stylish, smart dresser, elegant. When I'm not in the store, off buying or styling, i am with my family; Schoolly D and our daughter Jordan Dream Weaver. You may find me at the local thrift store, a modern furniture store in miami, or showrooms in New York, LA or Paris. Some of my clients consist of hip-hop, R&B, & pop artists such as Eve, Jaguar, Aries, Jill Scott, Vivian Green, Monie Love, Tyrese, Beenie Man, & Pink to name a few. Echochic targets fashion forward shoppers craving the latest looks from designers such as L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani, Missoni, Sass and Bide, Mike & Chris, Nanushka, Mimi Turner, Rachel Pally, Sky and much more.
