Neaato Org The Los Angeles Times recently featured a spotlight on the young, smart, and stylish progeny of Forever 21’s founders, Don and Jin-Sook Chang.

Last year, the retailer took over several leases from bankrupt department store Mervyn’s, signaling a move from specialty store to big-box retail format. One of those was in Cerritos, where the new Forever 21 store is the prototype for all openings going forward.

Linda studied management as an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School.She hired a staff (which now numbers 20), launched a Facebook page (now at 747,000 followers), a Twitter feed (73,000 followers) and a blog, the Skinny, aimed at the Teen Vogue set. Forever 21 largely bypasses old media, reaching out to customers and fashion bloggers directly.
