This past year, Echo celebrated its 95^th successful year in business. Founded in 1923 by Steven’s grandparents, and joined most recently by Steven’s son, representing the 4^th generation, the company now has 3 generations of Roberts’ working side by side. Known for its timelessly beautiful print, pattern and color, combined with impeccable craftsmanship and quality, the brand has kept its rich heritage and signature sense of style alive.

Steven understands the need for a brand to morph and grow along with the ever- changing world, “Each day we are inspired by our rich archive, history and brand story. And we challenge ourselves, our designs and products to be relevant to today’s consumer.”
