Owner & Founder
I realized my dream of pursuing a career in Fashion at 16-years old when I took my first Fashion Merchandising class offered at my high school. I went on to graduate from Iowa State University with a B.S. in Apparel Merchandising, Design, and Production and a minor in Entrepreneurial Studies, where I was also offered the opportunity to study at the London College of Fashion. With my educational background and 14-years of corporate retail experience, I decided it was time for my lifelong dream of being a small business owner to come full circle.

For the majority of my adult life, I struggled to shop for what I nick-named the ‘in-between’ in my closet. There were no shortages of business professional options, bar/clubbing pieces, and drawers full of yoga pants. I found it difficult to find versatile styles that could be worn to work, to happy hour with my girlfriends, date night with my husband, family gatherings, and running errands on the weekend. Therefore, my vision for Lily Foster was created out of the need to solve for the ‘in-between’.

Lily Foster is so much more than a company or a brand, it’s an opportunity to share my passion with other women and create a lasting connection with our customers.

How Did We Get Our Name?
My middle name is Foster, named after my maternal great grandmother, Lillian Violet Foster...Lily Foster.
