If You Love Ulla Johnson, You’ll Love These:
Welcome to one of our newest series: If You Love This, You'll Love These. We're highlighting our favorite up-and-coming designers reimagining some of the most well-known and beloved styles in more ethical and unique ways. Our first edition featured the infamous brand Champion and the cool designers who have made their way into the workout-wear world.
This time around, we’re highlighting Ulla Johnson, a designer well known for her bohemian silhouettes, batik prints, and charming dresses. Her thoughtfully crafted pieces may have a cult following, but we’ve found some equally beautiful shapes and details from a few of our favorite emerging designers. Here are the ones you need to know:
