WOMAN OWNED • SUSTAINABLE FABRICS • RESPONSIBLY SEWN

FASHION’S FIRST DEAF DESIGNER

When she released her signature line in 1987, Mona Thalheimer made history as America’s first deaf fashion designer and manufacturer. Her creations quickly caught the eye of the luxury market and soon she was on the racks of Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, and Fred Segal.

Today, her collection reflects timelessness and elegance, offering a line of exquisite shirts and shirt dresses. She is considered among her peers as a designer’s designer.

 RESPONSIBLY SEWN IN LOS ANGELES

All garments are sustainably & responsibly sewn in Los Angeles. We provide European styling, Japanese cottons and a quick turnaround of orders.

Having designed complete collections for many years, Mona has now focused all of her attention on an American Classic, the shirt and by extension the shirt dress.

Forever in style and never out of fashion.

Every year we look for opportunities to engage with our different stakeholders.

Recently, we celebrated National Nurses Week by donating $30,000 dollars of our shirts to the UCLA Hospital front line nurses in recognition of their efforts during the pandemic.
