Hazel Nguyen
Otto is Hazel's ex-husband and ex-business partner. They had created Hazel Boutique together as Hazel handled the design half and Otto handled the business half of the company. Their divorce was bitter, as he started a rival label, Tatin, afterwards and tried to poach all of Hazel Boutique's employees. Now his company is just as big as Hazel Boutique.
