Penelope Rosette Embellished Milano Knit Dress

Prior to launching her eponymous collection in 1998, Lela Rose was formally trained as a painter and sculptor—influences evident in her brilliant use of color, rich fabrications and elegant silhouettes. Her clothing is undeniably feminine, multidimensional and punctuated with exquisitely handcrafted details. The brand supports a network of New York City-based artisans and manufacturers to locally produce all possible elements of her designer ready-to-wear offering.
