Our Story

Where Timeless American Style Meets Heartfelt Craftsmanship

Our Story

Founded in 1985 in the heart of New York City, Nelson & Parker began as a shared dream between a husband and wife — Emma Nelson and James Parker. What started as a small family-run shop quickly became a trusted destination for those who value quality, elegance, and individuality in their wardrobe. For 40 years, we’ve poured our hearts into creating a boutique that reflects not just fashion, but meaning.

Designed for Everyday Confidence

Our collection has always been curated with one goal in mind: to help you feel confident, comfortable, and effortlessly stylish — whether you’re dressing for a quiet morning or a special evening. Every item is handpicked to bring timeless American charm into your life.

Rooted in Love, Built with Purpose

More than just a business, Nelson & Parker has been a labour of love — built on trust, shared vision, and the joy of creating something meaningful together. Each piece we offer tells a story and carries with it the warmth of our family values.

The 40th Anniversary Sale

This year, Nelson & Parker proudly celebrates 40 years of craftsmanship, community, and timeless style. To thank you for being part of our journey, we’re offering up to 80% off our entire collection. It’s our way of celebrating four decades of love, fashion, and the customers who made it all possible.

Thank you for being part of this extraordinary journey. Here’s to celebrating the past 40 years — and looking forward to many more moments of style together.

With love,
Emma Nelson & James Parker
