Rag & Bone is well known among young fashionistas for its quality construction, sweet and thoughtful details, and trendy but soft looks. Made in the USA, Rag & Bone clothing combines an appreciation for the olden days in American history with a love for modern style and British inspiration. Founded in 2002, the company uses delicate fabrics to craft playful and upscale dresses, jeans, shorts, skirts, and tops for sophisticated audiences. This sample of their clothing is comfortable, summery, and feminine.
The Lacuna silk top looks like a beautiful, mysterious midnight. Like the name implies, the abstract design is like a gap in outer space. This sleeveless top has a scoop neckline for a feminine fit. The shirt then flares out in an A-line, making it a perfect top for tight jeans and leggings. With its dark and light greys in a streaky print with golden flecks, this is a top you can wear year round. In the summer, wear it by itself in the evening. In the fall or spring, wear it with a black wrap or sweater.

The Rag and Bone Drawstring Funnel Dress embodies late spring and summer. The dress has a softly focused flowery pattern in the front and a solid white back. With a silk front and a cotton back and loose short sleeves, this dress flows and flirts. The waist features a drawstring for a modern look. Wear it with tan colored leather wedges or white shoes. Perfect for a picnic, vacation, or a regular summer day.
The Black Ruched Aura Skirt by Rag and Bone is made from a light knit jersey fabric. The shell is 70 percent modal and 30 percent cotton for a super soft feel. The lining is 50 percent cotton and 50 percent Lyocell for stretch. Plenty of ruching on the side seams gives the skirt lots of lines and folds that contrasts with the fitted, almost pencil-style form. Hitting above the knees, this is a versatile skirt. It's also available in blue. With an elastic banded waist, this skirt is easy to slip on and always stays put.
White jeans have been resurrected from the 80s. The Rag and Bone Skinny Stretch Jeans make a great case for wearing white jeans. These bleached jeans have a comfortable stretch from a cotton and polyurethane fabric mix. We like the back pockets, which are refreshingly bare; no logos or flashy designs. Just a clean and smooth look with a simple stitched line down the center. Wear these in the summer with a pair of black heels and a light colored top for a trendy look.
The Rag and Bone Wavell Shorts are a unique pair of shorts that still look familiar and American. The one-hundred percent double woven cotton shorts are super soft. Blue pin stripes line the shorts. There's a small pocket in the front with a button closure' and one in the back. An elastic waist band adds some trendy visual appeal, not to mention comfort. These are a great pair of shorts to play in this summer. Pair them with flat gladiator sandals and hit the streets or shore.
Far from rugged rags, this clothing line is more of a rags-to-riches look. Rag & Bone brings the best of the Americana past into the fabulous styles of the present for clean looks and well-made threads.
