William & Lauren: Unleashing Confidence Through Custom Clothing

January 10

In 2015, Lauren Warkentine found herself in a high-profile corporate meeting where her confidence crumbled, a moment she traced back to feeling unempowered in her professional attire. Realizing she wasn’t alone in the struggle to find affordable, professional clothing that expressed both personality and values, Lauren was inspired to create what was missing in the market. From that revelation, William & Lauren was born.
