Both coming from families of entrepreneurs, Sandra and Stephen have always wished to work together in a company of human scale, following their parents' footsteps. In 2002, they decide to take over the family business. Their complamentary personalities and ambitions allow GIPSY to regain momentum. Stephen, who always has an eye on the latest trends, imagines and draws new concepts with his attention to detail and adorable designs. WIth her training in marketing techniques, Sandra puts all of her communicative energy at the service of these new creations.
