Designer Spotlight: Verrier

Four years ago, when Ashleigh Verrier graduated from Parsons School of Design in New York, Saks did an unprecedented thing: They bought her entire senior thesis collection.

Since then, the former Proenza Schouler intern has culled her line with a feminine, vintage-inspired aesthetic that produces fluttery ruched tops, satin tulip skirts, and sheer organza dresses. Ashleigh infuses her ladylike looks with a few subversive elements like cropped tops or see-through fabric, and is definitely a die-hard devotee to the world of fashion: She named her dog Schiaparelli, after the famous Parisian fashion designer of the '20s and '30s, Elsa Schiaparelli.
