Happy Fr-YAY, Fashion Besties!! This week on The Fashion Crimes Podcast, Holly is joined by the incredibly talented Caroline Leary Brown, the founder and creative director of her eponymous couture house in Philadelphia: Caroline Leary Studio.
Caroline designs each piece for women who command both boardrooms and ballrooms, offering garments that exude confidence and elegance.
After trading scrubs for silk, Caroline pursued a Master’s in Fashion Design, training under master couturiers in Paris. There, she honed her craft, focusing on reviving 1940s silhouettes with modern precision and incorporating thoughtfully sourced deadstock fabrics.
Caroline’s work has graced the cover of Harper's Bazaar and dressed the iconic Maye Musk—proving that her designs age as gracefully as the women who wear them.
In this episode, Caroline takes us through her inspiring journey—from her early days in the medical field to following her true passion for fashion.
She shares how her vision for couture is rooted in the idea of empowering confident, mature women and why custom clothing is the ultimate expression of self.
HOT TIP:
Watch this fantabulous interview on our YouTube Channel! Seeing Caroline showcase her designs is a must! You won't want to miss it.
Key Talking Points:
The philosophy is simple but powerful: fashion should be a statement of confidence. Her journey serves as an inspiration to anyone pursuing their passion, regardless of how unconventional the path may seem. She is living proof it can be done.
Fashion Besties, you do not want to miss this episode! We love to support small businesses like Caroline's. If you are in the market for a custom piece, you've come to the right place.
