ABOUT OUR Founder
LANE TABB
Lane is a luxury fashion, sustainability and innovation specialist, focused on merging new technologies with American artisan craftsmanship.
Lane has worked with some of the most esteemed fashion leaders on the planet over the past 20 years including Donna Karan, Kate Spade, Rebecca Minkoff, Jill Stuart, Herve Leger, Max Azria and many others.
In 2013 Lane was tapped to lead a fashion technology Startup in San Francisco. For 5 years Lane focused on the intersection of fashion and technology, which introduced her to thinking outside of the traditional fashion industry box.
In 2019 Tabb returned to her roots in the fashion industry launching an advanced luxury manufacturing platform-LLABB ALM. LLABB ALM was selected to participate in the XRC labs Accelerator Cohort 7 in 2019, and in 2020 Tabb was again selected to participate in the UBS Project Entrepreneur accelerator’s first cohort.
In 2022, Tabb pivoted the company LLABB to include a new luxury atelier for fashion collection development, adding to her original technology-based startup a renewed focus on the craft of localized artisanship and hand-making while utilizing these advanced technologies for speedier, less wasteful processes.
2023 brings a rebranding to the company- renamed Sustain Fashion Advisory and with that an introduction of new services including a fashion strategy and advising service, a startup incubator, an artisan fashion studio Co-working space, and in 2024 a new take on retailing 4.0.
Lane is based in NYC, sharing her West Village home with her husband George, and their two dogs Lucky and Rocket.
