When did you open Duo?
"February 2011. I moved back here from Knoxville — where I went to school — in July, and then my sister and I started looking for spaces and learning about business. We were reading accounting books and really exciting things like that."

How did the store get its name?
"It’s a joint venture between my sister and myself. The name was actually 'Hippie Chic,' but when we found a space and it was next to Urban Chic, so had to change that name — otherwise it would’ve been chic street."
