flopi was started in the summer of 2002, encouraged by Michael Costanza (dodgeball society entrepreneur), in the heart of Los Angeles with artist, Florencia Scagliotti. The boyshort was the first break through success they had together as a team, along with the stripe and pokadot fabrics they used. Another driving support to the company was Joseph McChesney (entrepreneur/actor), who launched flopi to the mainstream.

Today flopi is considered a pioneer in bringing fun and striking prints to your wardrobe while combining infinite influences to your look. Designer and free spirit, Flo, says, "I'm all over the place and embrace a lot of different styles and themes. I love the fact that there is no limit where you can draw from and where you can bring it to."
