Carly Cushnie: Fashion, Interior, and Furniture Designer

Carly Cushnie is a designer in every sense of the word, perhaps best known for her mold-breaking womenswear line, Cushnie (formerly Cushnie et Ochs). She was born and raised in London, and studied at the Parsons School of Design, where she met her future co-founder, Michelle Ochs. After graduating, they launched their label, Cushnie et Ochs, and immediately received attention for their sleek yet flirty designs. In 2011, they were finalists for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, and in 2012, were nominees for the CFDA Swarovski Award for Womenswear. Carly continued to design collections and ultimately rebranded as Cushnie when she went solo in 2018. After struggling to stay afloat during the COVID-19 pandemic, Carly was forced to close Cushnie, which—although was heartbreaking—gave her a moment to think about her next steps. In the years since, she’s pursued different creative projects; including nurturing her longtime love for interiors and architecture by beginning to work as an interior designer. Her work in the interior space culminated this year in the creation of a furniture collection with the luxury furniture brand Lulu and Georgia.
