Mimi Plange

Ghanaian born and Southern California raised, Plange began her eponymous luxury ready-to-wear label, formally known as Boudoir D’huitres, in 2007 with a desire to create American sportswear inspired by Victorian and African historical fashion.

She then went on to work as a designer for various sportswear brands, collaborating with Patricia Field and working under Rachel Roy before establishing her own fashion-consulting firm, SB&P Designs, LLC, the parent company of Mimi Plange.
