Witney Tucker, founder of Laya, is on a mission to craft swimwear that makes you feel confident and beautiful. Inspired by her childhood lived in Mauritius, Laya draws you into a tropical lifestyle we all desire. There is an effortless sophistication to her swimwear that pairs beautifully with the warm weather La Peony styles such as the Jessi Dress and Tina Rib Knit Tanks.
Laya is a luxury brand that embodies the spirit of island living, where every day feels like an indulgent escape. The signature butter-soft fabrics are crafted from the finest Spanish materials, providing an unparalleled level of comfort, support and luxury that will make you feel your most confident. The first retail location on Montana Avenue in Santa Monica is a dynamic space and home to La Peony Clothing which is curated alongside items from other sustainable and independent designers.
Witney shared with us some of her favorite LPC styles available at Laya now. Including the Daniela Lambskin Blazer in Black she is wearing in our interview.
