STAUD is a ready to wear line offering chic essentials and stand-alone pieces designed and created in downtown LA. STAUD was founded in downtown Los Angeles in 2015 by Sarah Staudinger and George Augusto on a commitment to producing accessible, yet innovative pieces for the contemporary woman. Our collections are created for those that want beautiful accessibly priced clothes and ready to wear collections that forgo trend for timelessness. The goal? No nonsense, high style.
