Serena & Lily is the perfect on-line shopping destination for your haute Hamptons home.

According to textile designer and artist Serena Dugan [Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer] the Serena and Lily brand was born on one serendipitous day in 2001 when she stopped into a Mill Valley baby boutique owned by Lily Kanter [Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer], a Microsoft refugee-turned entrepreneur.

 

Serena shares,“Our backgrounds were worlds apart, but we shared a similar point of view. There was a void in the market for the kind of fresh, style-driven bedding we craved. We dreamed of children’s spaces filled with dynamic color and pattern and a unique blend of simplicity & sophistication. Within an hour, we had decided to form a new company!”

 

Sheesh! Sometimes it all just falls into place huh? The Serena & Lily brand exploded as an instant hit with taste-makers, decorators, Hollywood moms and dwellers who crave inspired design. In no time, the duo rolled out custom upholstery, furniture, art, and unique finds from around the world to fill the rest of the rooms in our Hamptons home!

Serena tells KDH, “Hamptons style is just as stylish as New York, but with color and a laissez-faire attitude.” Lily adds, “I see Hamptons style as fun, colorful, and fashion-forward, but there’s also a very classic element to it that reflects a timeless summer nostalgia. Hamptons style makes me think of the quintessential summer~ all year round!”
