Vena Cava

Brooklyn-based designers Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai have been designing together since their graduation from Parsons School of Design in the spring of 2003. Their inspirations come from their own vast vintage collections, their unique personal styles, and natural objects. They admire fashion designers Jean Muir, Paul Poiret, and Claire McCardell – designers who preferred simple designs enhanced by subtle details and elegant fabrics. The feeling of wearing a piece by Vena Cava is much like the feeling of wearing a special family heirloom. The clothes enhance the wearer’s own beauty not by shouting but by whispering.
