Founded in 2008, Lipsy started as one brand with a big dream. Today, we’ve grown into three dynamic London-based fashion brands, each with their own distinct style and story.

Love & Roses is for the woman who isn’t afraid to push boundaries, she’ll set her own trend, with unique styles, playful prints and fabulous fabrics at her core. Friends Like These is for the go-getter - she’s strong, feminine and always on the move, so we offer her a gorgeous wardrobe line-up she can bank on every time.
But it’s not just about fashion - we’re just as passionate about our people. With a supportive and collaborative culture at our core, we’re proud of the work we do and the team behind it. It’s an exciting time to be part of our journey as we continue to evolve and create something truly special together.
