NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Leota, the New York women’s fashion brand focused on vibrant,
size-inclusive clothing, today announces the availability of its fashion
forward apparel brand through high-end retailer Bloomingdale’s. Along
with current partnerships at other department stores, its New York

Founded in 2011, Leota is a fashion startup focusing on flattering,
colorful and effortless dresses for women of all sizes. Leota was
created by entrepreneur Sarah Carson and later joined by her sister
Julie, grown from a belief that women who do it all need fashion that
supports their busy lifestyle whether at work or at home. The company
focuses on pieces that are beautiful, easy to wear, and on-trend. Made
in New York, Leota dresses are machine washable, wrinkle-free, travel
friendly and comfortable.
“We are so pleased to be working with Bloomingdale’s,” says founder and
CEO Sarah Carson. “We believe in fashion for strong, smart women and
feel that our vision aligns well with Bloomingdale’s commitment to
diversity and inclusion. We are excited to get started and show this new
audience that they don’t need to choose between fashion and wearable
comfort.”
Starting in April, Leota dresses will be available on bloomingdales.com.
The brand’s signature piece, the perfect wrap dress, will be available
along with other styles ranging in size from XS-XL. The brand also
currently works with other department store retailers along with running
its own e-commerce platform, which expands the size range to 3L.
Leota will continue to retail on its own website and set up partnerships
with other retailers. The brand plans to expand its offerings in 2017,
