Richard Saghian, who founded Fashion Nova in 2006 and has served as the CEO since, dropped $126 million to purchase the 105,000 square foot mansion known as 'The One,' according to New York Post. He was introduced to fashion by his father, who owned women's clothing stores where Saghian would work during the summers when he was young, according to Business of Fashion. Saghian founded Fashion Nova in Vernon, California, and has been in the fast fashion industry since making his mark.

He launched his website in 2013 and was one of the first to discover social media marketing and successful branding, especially on Instagram. Not only is he known for fashion, but he is a social media influencer and has built quite the following over the years. Fashion Nova has been known for its elegant and trendy but still inexpensive designs for women, men, and now even children, catering to all body types and ethnicities.
