Ulla Johnson

We created a premium denim line to complement Ulla Johnson's successful ready-to-wear business. We developed the new collection by emphasizing artisan-made Made in USA products, establishing an elevated brand identity, and selecting high-quality fabrics and washes. The launch was successful, generating strong sales and gaining runway presence. We continue to design denim styles for Ulla each season.

Ulla Johnson is a unique fashion brand founded in New York in 1998. Focusing on artisan crafted designs, print and pattern Ulla Johnson has been a leader in luxury product for decades. Ulla asked us to come in and build a premium denim business for her already flourishing ready to wear business.

The product launched to great success and sell through as well as a great runway presence.
