Five years ago, Los Angeles-based designer Summer Starlit Prim sought to turn her passion of collecting vintage fashions into a new brand: Starlit. Since its inception, with the debut collection releasing this year, the label has been growing its offering of modern, sexy eveningwear that channels Old Hollywood glamour.
“I’m such an avid vintage clothing collector, and have been ever since I was in middle school. I was always fascinated with Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn — those era’s icons,” the founder and creative director told WWD. Although she initially went to school for interior design, Starlit Prim’s sights shifted to fashion thanks to her sizable wardrobe of vintage pieces. “I wanted to utilize and share the styles with everyone.”
