The Lizzie
Parker customer is looking for is a “workable” wardrobe of core essentials and
fashion-forward layering pieces. This customer knows that they can get more out
of buying a lesser quantity of higher quality, longer lasting pieces.
Having designed
everything from the most essential basic “Lizzie Tee” to red carpet looks for
Summer Rayne Oakes, Lizzie draws inspiration for her designs from daily life, including her love of heavy
metal. Her clothes create a modern wardrobe so women can make the sidewalk
their catwalk each and every day.
Lizzie has co-hosted
the Sustainable 1000 radio show and served as Co-Chairman of the Board at
WACAP, World Association of Children and Parents. She continues to be an
advocate for adoption and better living. She currently serves as Executive
