THE DESIGNER Julie Haus-Alkire, began studying pattern construction and sewing at the age of thirteen under her grandmother, a 1950's dressmaker. From a young age she developed a polished sense of style that has followed her to this day.
Haus began her fashion career professionally while she was at Spoon Magazine, a luxury lifestyle publication she co-founded with husband and creative director, Jason Alkire. As the editorial director, Julie styled fashion and home editorial features working with top design houses such as Hermés, Tiffany & Co, Amsale, and Vera Wang. Leading luxury advertisers such as BMW, Barney's NY, and LVMH also supported the magazine.
Before long, Haus became restless, eager to fulfill her aspirations of becoming a professional fashion designer. Haus' goal was to create a ready-to-wear clothing line for women who shared her appreciation for edgy, feminine fabrications and intricate tailoring. Haus' designs quickly became known for their immaculate craftwork and impeccable fit and her style became a distinct fusion of old and new.
