Lauren sits down with Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, the outgoing designers of Oscar de la Renta and co-founders of Monse. They dig into the challenges of designing two collections simultaneously, especially during February’s grueling New York Fashion Week season, which tends to be the toughest to put together. Then they reflect on a decade of growth at Oscar de la Renta and why they ultimately chose to focus exclusively on Monse. Along the way, they break down the importance of understanding of their customer base, the role social media and celebrity endorsements played in the brand’s ascent, and much more.
