Elle Wang
Elle Wang is the founder and creative director of New York-based clothing brand Emilia George.
She was working full-time from home, caring for her toddler, and running her clothing business at night in early 2020.
After a miscarriage in June, Wang says she made changes to her strained schedule to prioritize her health.
I first had the urge to create high-end maternity workwear when I was seven months pregnant in February 2019. I was working full-time, and felt simply pushed over the edge by the uncomfortable clothing I wore to work everyday — the first thing I did when I got home was get naked.
