Envy by Melissa Gorga

After a successful jewelry line with the Home Shopping Network, Melissa Gorga co-founded Envy by Melissa Gorga with stylist Jackie Beard Robinson.^[1] Gorga's husband, Joe Gorga, constructed the interior of the boutique. The first boutique opened on January 14, 2016, located at 609 Bloomfield Avenue, in Montclair, New Jersey.^[2] In January 2017, the boutique temporarily closed after Robinson emptied the entire store of its inventory and gave the merchandise to Allendale boutique owner Kim Depoala.^[3] The boutique reopened the same month, with Robinson no longer being a business partner nor co-owner.^[4]

In March 2022, the flagship location was relocated to Ridgewood, New Jersey, in search for a bigger space.^[5][6][7] In January 2024, Gorga announced the opening of a second boutique location, extending the location to Long Island, New York.
