Our Favorite Female-Led Fashion Brands

Margaret and Katherine Kleveland founded DÔEN after noticing the lack of women's representation after spending years in the fashion industry. Born in Santa Barbara, their collections are inspired by a nostalgia for their coastal California days. They wanted to create something different- a brand that celebrates women and empowers them to live beautiful lives in beautiful clothes.

Réalisation arose from the collective mindset of inspiring women. When founding this fashion brand, Alexandra Spencer and Teale Talbot wanted to create individual pieces rather than collections, to provide those special items your wardrobe may be missing. Each piece has individual attention to personal style and is made to give you the confidence to wear it. 

An SN Favorite, Fanm Mon, was launched in 2013 as an ode to Sophia's Haitian heritage. The spirit of couture is the core of the brand, consisting of the extra flare, the prints, the bold embroidery, and vibrant colors that embody Haitian couture. These one-of-a-kind pieces are made for special occasions. Check out our SN Twist on the Demre Dress below!

Next up? A classic we all know and love, SPANX. Sara Blakely founded SPANX when she was getting ready for a party and realized she didn't have the right undergarment to provide that smooth look. Since then, SPANX has grown to offer bras, underwear, leggings, activewear and more, with the sole mission to help women feel great about themselves and their potential.

Henrietta Rix & Orlagh McCloskey, created RIXO to evoke a spirit-free wardrobe, filling the gap in the contemporary market with easy-to-wear, feminine shapes, and high-quality materials. They wanted to empower women, making a fusion of original hand-painted prints and timeless silhouettes to flatter every woman, no matter the age, season, nationality, or time of day.

ROTATE is a brand from Birger Christensen, created in partnership with influencers and stylists Jeanette Madsen and Thora Valdimarsdottir. Jeanette and Thora created this brand in response to the gaps in their wardrobes, designing the pieces they dreamt of having in their closets. Taking the world by storm, their collections are filled with sexy minidresses and covetable pieces for the going-out wardrobe.

If you haven't already, meet a brand the moms of Team SN swear by. A Pea in the Pod was started on a new way of thinking. A new age of motherhood. This brand was founded to be a rule-breaker and a trend-setter for fellow females. They created 40weeksofchic to allow mothers the opportunity to look good and feel good at all times, without having to compromise between fashion and family.

Matteau focuses on the concept of simplicity and less is more. Their styles are timeless and are meant to last a lifetime. With quality being their utmost priority, their garments are made to fit and perform exactly as they need to, making a chic and classic swim staple every wardrobe needs!

BERNADETTE is the Antwerp-based fashion label from creative mom-and-daughter duo Bernadette and Charlotte de Geyter. They seamlessly merged their love for fashion and interiors, and created their ready-to-wear and homeware collections based on their shared vision of modern luxury. They are more than just a fashion label, their extensive archive of patterns and florals are made to brighten up every occasion.
