How it started

History

McLean is the daughter of sculptor Bruce McLean. Some of her first self-made designs were the hats and turbans made for her father's 1996 film, Urban Turban.

House of Flora, McLean's own design house, was founded in 1996 when she started taking on private commissions and making millinery props for magazines, advertising and fashion shows. Her avant-garde design aesthetic is informed by her stated influences of surrealism, constructivism and the Bauhaus movement.
