Lara’s earth friendly pieces have been called “sultry, sophisticated, and as endlessly variable as the woman who wears them” by elle.com. Hand-loomed and sewn in Chicago, Lara Miller’s work is strongly influenced by the city’s architectural and cultural landscape. Hand-looming, a process similar to weaving, is a dying artisan craft that is not only cherished, but a staple of the Lara Miller collection. Fashioned from eco-friendly fibers such as organic cotton, recycled cotton, bamboo, linen, hemp and vegan silk, Lara's modular designs are created with a playful geometry that connects to the personalities of the women who wear them. Most garments can be wrapped, reversed, and most distinguishably flipped to reveal an entirely different look. Acknowledging the impact that we all have on our environment, Lara aspires to preserve and respect our earth in every way possible. " I see my company as a way to support my community - not only by using organic materials while adhering to a “green” lifestyle and workspace - but also by manufacturing locally and working to sustain the sewn products industry in Chicago."
