Mara Hoffman

The Mara Hoffman lifestyle label encompasses Women’s Ready-to-Wear, Childrenswear, Bridal, Swimwear and Active. The brand's recognizable aesthetic heavily focuses on colorful, original prints. Recurrently drawing from nature and mythology, President and Creative Director, Mara Hoffman, ultimately takes inspiration from her own travels around the world and is a true, living embodiment of her designs. In 2008, Hoffman launched her first swim collection, consisting of playful bikinis, cutout one pieces and dashiki cover-ups – it also marked the brand's first Bryant Park appearance for Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. The following year, Hoffman showed her swim collection at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Swim in Miami. In 2011 Mara Hoffman was honored to be inducted as a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America. Mara Hoffman, born in Buffalo, NY, graduated from Parsons School of Design in New York City and studied at Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design in London. She is currently headquartered in New York with her close-knit team and resides in Brooklyn with her husband, collage artist Javier Piñón, son, Joaquin, and their dog, Gypsy.
