Rory Beca is the creation of twenty-four year old Rory Edelman. With experience from St. Martin's School of Design in London and Boston School of Design, Rory creates very wearable feminine fashions with an edge.
Rory's fashion career began with hand knit scarves. While Rory was working alongside Deb McGuire (designer and stylist) in Los Angeles, Deb spotted Rory's scarves and immediately bought them to be used in Friends and Crossing Jordan. It was at this time she introduced her first collection - a line of one-of-a-kind hand knit scarves and tops created from rare and unusual yarns and vintage pieces. Noticed by the buyer of Henri Bendel in New York, she was given two exclusive trunk shows, which sold out immediately. The scarves were noted in the 2003 "Best of L.A." issue of Los Angeles Magazine.
From vintage French lace to rhinestone broaches, appliqués, ribbons, buttons and trims, to printed silks, silk charmeuse, chiffon and cashmere fabrics, Rory scours flea markets, vintage shows, private collections and antique shops all over the world that inspire the incredibly timeless detailing and fabrics seen in the Rory Beca collections. |
