Kelly Lane: Ethical and eco-friendly clothing with color.

Kelly Lane's Iris dress: beautiful periwinkle contrasted with a printed ivory panel down the center and a band of soft mustard yellow at the waist. Sleek and slimming with a comfortable, soft feel and fit, perfect for summer parties!

An artistic childhood and a grandfather who loves telling stories have both influenced the exquisitely hand-crafted designs by Kelly Lane. Up until 2005, she worked as a graphic designer, having received both a bachelor's degree and master's degree in graphic design ten years earlier. When, in 2005, her husband gave her a sewing machine, she says she "traded in a Mac for a Singer" and the youthful, creative energy of her childhood was unleashed onto an entirely new canvas: clothing! She started her own clothing line a year later, Kelly Lane: Clothing with Color. She says,"I, like my grandfather and his colorful stories, seek to enhance your true colors."

The Dahlia dress is versatile and sassy, perfect for a cocktail party or summer wedding.
Wear as a skirt, as well, the ties wrapped gently around the waist.
Beautiful rose color contrasts with a fun and care-free printed accent down the center.

Kelly Lane's dresses and skirts are sophisticated and artistic, combining different textures, prints and solids that are eye-catching and unique. She blends sinfully soft jersey knits with sturdier woven fabrics, resulting in feminine silhouettes that are sweet, timeless and durable. She and the artisans she works with use eco-friendly materials and ethical practices, creating handmade, high quality "clothing with a conscience."

At Ella's, we are increasingly tring to bring eco-friendly, and, when possible, handmade clothing and accessories into our store, and Kelly Lane is a designer we're excited to have, and we think you will be, too!
