If it hadn’t been for Betsey Johnson, Jenn and Lauren
probably wouldn’t have ever met. They came from Chicago and
Boston, respectively, to start internships at Betsey’s New York City
showroom on the very same February day in 2008. Design was Jenn’s area
of expertise and Lauren’s game was retail. So from the get go they naturally complemented each other. It was when they returned to New York to volunteer for Betsey Johnson during Fashion Week the following September that they got it in their heads to start their own company. And so the women’s contemporary label, Lily & Migs was born. Through Lily & Migs, Jenn and Lauren use their honed fashion sense to design fun, beautiful and fabulous pieces that every woman would love to wear. With every collection, the goal is to discover looks that reflect the many lovely ways a woman wants or needs to feel.
