ISLE APPAREL
Secaucus, NJBrand · Clothing
Isle by Melis Kozan is a sophisticated brand that captures the fun, funky flair
of its designer, Melis Kozan. Her passion for fashion began early, and her
career at Diesel in Italy introduced her to the fundamentals of design and the
world of international fashion.
In 2005, Melis and her husband, Chad Kozan, combined her eye for women’s
apparel with his experience in textiles to launch Isle—an international
clothing brand that has steadily grown into a complete lifestyle collection.
Today, Isle offers tops, tunics, sweaters, jackets, pants, leggings, skirts, faux
fur styles, and the iconic Cha-Cha Dress that first put the brand on the map.
All original prints are created in-house or sourced from Italy, France, and
Turkey, and every garment is manufactured in their Istanbul facility. With
design and production closely overseen, Melis and Chad ensure the
exceptional quality their customers expect.
Constantly inspired by their travels—as well as art, photography, film, and
global culture, Melis infuses each collection with an international sensibility.
The Isle woman is fresh, edgy, sexy, and sometimes sweet; she seeks pieces
that are stylish yet wearable, effortlessly transitioning from day to evening.
Isle designs are modern, chic, and easy to wear for women of all ages who
love to stand out through their style.
Born and raised in Istanbul, Melis and Chad now live in New Jersey with
their twin sons, Arda and Batu.
