For Love & Lemons is a Los Angeles womenswear label founded by childhood friends Laura Hall and Gillian Rose Kern, who met in Wyoming and started the line after living in Australia. The independent, women-led company works from a Beverly Boulevard base and designs ready-to-wear, knitwear, swimwear and the Skivvies lingerie range, using custom lace, floral embroidery, sheer panels and corseted, body-conscious silhouettes. A long-running partnership with Victoria's Secret widened its reach, and pieces are regularly worn by Beyoncé, Vanessa Hudgens and Emma Roberts. Occasion dressing, slip dresses and bridal-adjacent white pieces anchor the assortment.
