Lara was created by siblings, Jasmine Singh and Herman Pahwa. Their passion
for dresses was instilled into them from birth. Throughout childhood, Jasmine and Herman would drive into the garment district of NYC, and visit
their parent’s wholesale dress store near Times Square, so that they were not home alone.
As adolescents they soaked up knowledge about fashion and evening wear
that after both graduating college with business degrees, they realized that
they couldn’t do anything else. In 2015, Jasmine and Herman launched Lara.com
with a vision to create fashion forward gowns that fit women of all shapes and
sizes.

As our head designer, Jasmine leads a team of three women who are
dedicated to producing high quality hand-beaded bridal gowns, prom dresses,
evening dresses, mother of the bride/groom gowns, cocktail and social occasion
gowns that are memorable, glamorous, and of course SPARKLY! Each dress is
intended to make you stand out from the crowd on some of the most
enchanted evenings of your life.

As a wholesale company, we are primarily focused on building strong,
lasting relationships with our retail stores and their clients.
Lara is still a family-owned manufacturer of couture dresses based in the
heart of the garment district in New York City and we remain deeply connected
to our roots. If you stop by, you just may see our parents’ helping
customers.
