What began as a hobby eventually bloomed into a thriving business when self-taught designer Lisa Hackwith launched her eponymous label in September of 2013. With a desire to create a line that put an emphasis on quality and mindful production, she began releasing small, curated collectsions of only two to four styles every Monday. Minimalist, pared-down shapes are Hackwith's signature and are created with the intention of being elegant and versatile. Each piece can easily be incorporated into any woman's wardrobe with an effortlessly polished feel. Since its launch, the brand has expanded to include a few more pieces each week and separate lines for bridal, swimwear, basics and plus size. Plus, everything is made locally with love in Minneapolis. ****
