From sweaters starting at $245 to midi-length dresses ranging from $550 to $645, Harper aims to make fashion an empowering force for women. The collection, featuring 30 distinctive pieces, encompasses a range of styles. Oversized blazers, jersey knit dresses with New Wave-style shoulder pads, velvet floor-length dresses, high-waist wide-legged pants, and denim offerings showcase Harper’s commitment to bold yet uncomplicated designs.
Harper designs for the everyday woman, ensuring her pieces seamlessly transition from casual settings to evening glamour. The “Little Miracles” collection allows women to effortlessly navigate various scenarios, from school drop-offs in sweaters and jeans to office chic with silk blouses and blazers, and glamorous evenings in fabulous dresses. Operating from her 2,700-square-foot showroom in LA’s Arts District, Harper embraces her role as a fashion creator. With the collection now available on the brand’s website, Harper’s entrepreneurial spirit shines through. Her message is clear: every woman should pursue her desires and embrace the courage to be exactly who she wants to be.
