About MEin5D
Founded by Stephanie Ford in 2009 while living in Paris the MEin5D (me in 5 d) concept was conceived as a mission to find depth, in a world preoccupied with appearance, through the exploration of the symbolic, cultural and emotional impact of the fashion world in modern society. Working from this perspective a realization occurred that finding depth in the tangible,visual and objectified phenomenon of fashion ultimately leads back to the individual.  Thus, inspiration can be found in returning to this original source of creation.

Team 5D

MEin5D founder Stephanie Ford was born in Washington D.C. and raised mainly in the suburbs of Maryland. Fortunate to be exposed to diversity and culture on an international level during childhood she was drawn to nature, exploration and had a tendency to make cardboard handbags for craft projects. After completing undergraduate studies in Business Management and Marketing at Drexel University in 2005, Stephanie entered the corporate world working for an IT consulting firm. Instantly stifled by the 9-5 grind Stephanie decided that an immediate re-evaluation of her life goals and expectations was in order. She relocated to Paris in January 2008 in discovery of the creative side of life and to complete post graduate studies in Fashion Design Management at IFM (Institut Français de la Mode). Impassioned and inspired by her experience in the French Fashion world and her rapid acquisition of the French language Stephanie decided to leave the IFM in 2009 to pursue the creation and development of MEin5D.
