Brianna Lance is an American fashion designer and artist based in New York City.
Lance's career initially focused on fashion. She became the head designer for the environmentally-conscious brand Reformation from 2010 to 2015. [2] [3] [4]
In 2015, she was approached by lead guitarist and vocalist Freddie Cowan of the English indie rock band The Vaccines to design uniforms for their 2015 tour; she couldn't find anything suitable, so Lance decided to create her own menswear line called Basic Rights. [5] She got inspiration by studying the wardrobes of iconic male figures such as Paul Newman, Steve McQueen, and Muhammad Ali. [5]
Lance is drawn to creative pursuits, and her career in recent years has branched out in many artistic directions. [6] She was described by Harper's Bazaar as a "statuesque redhead with a sunny smile" and a "downtown cool girl" who is a "true modern-day Renaissance woman". [2] She has created different types of art as a painter, [7] [2] a sculptor and a visual artist, sometimes working with textiles. [1] [8] She was a disc jockey at Fashion Week parties, "spinning tunes with tomboy flair in slip dresses and Converse sneakers." [2] [3] She has performed with the all-women band Bad Girlfriend. [9] A self-described "hippie at heart", [9] she wore fashion designs by Elizabeth Azen for the Women's March on Washington. [10]
Lance was born in San Jose, California in 1982. [1] She lives and works in New York City. [2]
