NY-based designer Rosie Assoulin cut her first fashion teeth at the tender age of 13, experimenting with her grandmother’s sewing machine. Later, after stints with Oscar de la Renta and Alber Elbaz at Lanvin, she launched her eponymous label in 2014, winning the CFDA gong for emerging womenswear label the very same year. Rosie has also just produced her first collection for Swarovski Collective, mixing the famous bling with her directional yet wearable threads.
