Bold lines, flawless execution and a rock-solid friendship, for starters. That winning formula…

Cushnie et Ochs seamlessly combines bold sensuality with raw feminine attitude that is confidently understated and luxuriously modern. Designers Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs have an inherent understanding of the female body that informs their body contouring silhouettes while celebrating the women who wear them. This definitive aesthetic has gained them the 2009 Ecco Domani award, and has made them Finalists for the 2011 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund and Nominees for the 2013 CFDA Swarovski Award. Their dresses have become a favorite on the red carpet, dressing an array of women from Reese Witherspoon and Rihanna to the First Lady Michelle Obama.
