Early Life and Education

Joe Ando‐Hirsh is now 29 years old, born on January 10, 1996. He has Japanese and French ancestry.

He attended multiple colleges before landing at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) for fashion design. During that time, he also pursued acting opportunities.

He studied Finance at Collin College (2014–2015) before pivoting to fashion and acting studies.

He also studied acting at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting for about two years prior to or alongside his fashion studies.

He graduated from FIT in or around 2019 (or soon thereafter) during the disruptions of the COVID‐19 pandemic era.

Career

Joe Ando’s career shifted significantly through his inventive use of social media as a creative outlet.

After graduating (amid pandemic constraints), he began making garments in his parents’ garage and documenting his process online.

One of his signature content formats involves asking someone, “Can I make you a dress?” and then designing and sewing a custom piece under tight timelines.

That format resonated strongly and helped him amass followers. His exposure led to celebrity clients.

Notable clients include Dakota Johnson, Millie Bobby Brown, and Ella Emhoff (for whom he designed a gown for her appearance during the Democratic National Convention).

In interviews, Joe has emphasized that much of his work is self‐funded, especially early on, and that he invests both time and capital to scale his design content and brand.

He has said he hopes to expand into a small ready‐to‐wear line or branded fashion collections while still retaining bespoke work and audience engagement.
