Born and raised in Manhattan, Ulla Johnson honed her signature style between the streets of New York and the far-flung destinations of her family travels. Her eponymous line, founded in 2000, immediately caught the attention of the fashion press. Growing from a handful of directional boutiques and with an early endorsement from Barneys New York, Ulla Johnson’s collection has gained a dedicated following and the support of retailers worldwide. ​ She has never wavered on her steadfast attention to the details of construction that have become her hallmark, basing each of her collections on a foundation of natural fibers, beautiful finishing, and ease of fit and form.
