Fifty years snuck up on Mike Roach, who first opened Paloma Clothing — at the time, called La Paloma, Spanish for “the dove” — with his mother in 1975. The 74-year-old spent the better part of those five decades running the Southwest Portland boutique alongside his wife and business partner Kim Osgood, 70. Tucked within Hillsdale Shopping Center, Paloma Clothing has been a backdrop to countless milestones over the years — from the birth of the couple’s daughter, Isabel, to the shock of a global pandemic.
