First Lady Jill Biden and Family Celebrate the American Dream at (IN)LARKIN® Fashion House

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Los Olivos, CA – August 27, 2024 – (IN)LARKIN®, a designer-led luxury fashion brand and small business embodying the American Dream, had the distinct honor of welcoming First Lady Dr. Jill Biden and her family to their Los Olivos Fashion House on Saturday, August 24th, 2024.

Founded by visionary designer Mary Beth Larkin, (IN)LARKIN® began as a small business with a big dream: to create a fashion brand that blends comfort and style to meet the everyday needs of the modern woman. From humble beginnings, Larkin built her (IN)LARKIN® brand from the ground up, driven by her passion for empowering women through timeless, versatile designs.

Understanding that her customer base desires both comfort and style, Larkin has pioneered a new market segment known as athglamour®, a fashion advance that bridges the gap between athleisure and high fashion. This innovative concept allows women to confidently express their individuality through a curated wardrobe, embracing a lifestyle without the boundaries of uncomfortable clothing while still looking effortlessly chic.

The visit by First Lady Biden marks a significant milestone in (IN)LARKIN®'s journey, highlighting the brand's growing influence in the American fashion landscape for those seeking a blend of luxury fashion and everyday wearability. During her visit, Dr. Biden, accompanied by her family, explored the fashion house and engaged with Mary Beth Larkin, the namesake behind the brand. Larkin had the honor of dressing the First Lady, as well as her daughter and granddaughter during their visit. Known for her sophisticated style and support of American designers, Dr. Biden took a special interest in the craftsmanship behind (IN)LARKIN®'s collections. The First Lady’s appreciation for (IN)LARKIN®'s story and her support for American fashion brands underscored her commitment to small businesses that embody the spirit of resilience and creativity.

"We are deeply honored to have hosted Dr. Jill Biden and her family at our fashion house," said Larkin. "As a small business owner, it means the world to have the First Lady recognize our hard work and dedication. Seeing three generations of Bidens in my designs was a dream come true! While meeting Armani was once a pinnacle moment for me, this experience was next level. (IN)LARKIN®’s journey is a true reflection of the American Dream—building something from nothing, with passion, perseverance, and a commitment to quality."

Dr. Biden and her family are known for their support of American artisans and entrepreneurs, and their visit served as a powerful acknowledgment of the impact that small businesses like (IN)LARKIN® can have on the national stage. The brand, which prides itself on merging the comfort of athleisure with the style of luxury fashion, continues to inspire women across the country by celebrating individuality and the art of living well.
