Most stylists have seen the gap firsthand. A client wants something custom and the options are fast fashion off the rack or a men's tailor who adapts a suit to the female form. The fabrics are limited, the fit is a compromise, and nothing about it feels personal. That gap is exactly what Lauren Linnane set out to fill.

Lauren spent over a decade in corporate accounting in Boston before she took a buyout, moved to Milan, and started building a custom clothing brand for women from scratch. She didn't speak the language, she didn't know the supply chain, and it took close to two years of relationship building before she had the right partners to produce a single garment at the level she wanted.

In this episode of The Six Figure Personal Stylist Podcast, Lauren shares the full story of building PARLA, what the bespoke client experience looks like from first fitting to finished garment, why custom clothing for women is so rare, and how stylists can start working with a designer like her.
