Revolutionizing an Untapped Market with Liz Lange, Iconic Designer & CEO of Figue

Apr 20, 2022

Designer and entrepreneur Liz Lange pioneered "maternity chic" by creating stylish, body conscious clothes for pregnant women—something that surprisingly didn’t exist in the 1990s. Working alone out of a one-room office, she created Liz Lange Maternity, a brand that changed the face of maternity fashions and disrupted the industry before anyone else had the chance to. Fast forward to today and she's forged huge partnerships with Nike and Target and has dressed most major pregnant celebrities, from Cindy Crawford to Reese Witherspoon. After selling her namesake brand, the industry innovator made a major return with the purchase of Figue, a popular ready-to-wear dress brand. While she’s been hard at work as Creative Director, she’s also jumped right into the role of CEO, strategizing the brand’s fresh perspective on direct-to-consumer growth. I’m so excited to talk to this industry icon about everything from how she built her maternity empire from the ground up to the importance of having a strong POV in the fashion industry.
