MAIA BERGMAN
Instagram is one of my favorite avenues to find new brands, and it has led me to yet another fantastic one that is on the rise for sure. Maia Bergman gives you and effortless girl-next-door look, giving me a LoveShackFancy and For Love & Lemons vibe, but it’s nothing that the masses have… yet. With attention to details and new and fresh designs, you’ll want not one, not two, but all of their pieces. Look like you just came back from Paris in any of these looks, and you’ll have people stopping you in the streets saying, “Where’d ya get that?” Not only is the brand donating 30% of their profits to Food Bank NYC and Yeah Fundacion Espiga, but these pieces will be staples for your summer wardrobe for years to come.
Yes, her designs are lovely, but after talking to Maia Bergman, I quickly learned that she is as well. She began designing by creating bespoke evening wear dresses and bridal in 2013, but transitioned into creating her own line about a year and a half ago. With the dream of seeing her designs worn by girls of all ages, she strives to design in an authentic and relatable way, thinking of real people and not just an imaginary muse. With the cultivation of her line, she takes inspiration from things like ceramics, glass, vintage perfume bottles and jewelry to create a clean but dreamy and feminine look. Her modern yet ethereal designs give the perfect effortless look, a style that fits into everyones closet. Inspired by designers like Christopher Kane, Isabel Marant, Alessandra Rich, vintage Valentino, and Maria Grazia at Dior, Bergman has created a line that has the everyday women in mind.
