Sarah Bonello, founder of the newly launched label The Park, created the brand with one clear mission in mind. “In essence, I launched The Park to make it easier for busy women to get dressed—and what woman isn’t busy?” she says. Her vision started with a line of classic wardrobe staples. “There’s nothing worse than having an important meeting or a special occasion but feeling like you have nothing to wear,” says the L.A.-based entrepreneur. Designed to fit effortlessly into any wardrobe, the collection features luxurious, timeless pieces made with innovative materials like Pyratex, a synthetic-free fabric made from dissolved wood pulp. Bonello’s approach is practical but elegant. “Every piece is meant to complement other designers,” she explains, adding that they always fit, no matter your size. “As women, our bodies change. We need pieces we can rely on every day.” Whether it’s the versatile Joy skirted leggings or the stretch-knit Elizabeth midi-dress, her designs offer endless styling options. Looking ahead, she plans to expand The Park with new silhouettes and fabrics while staying true to her core ethos: creating pieces women can wear every day for years to come. Here, Bonello shares the essential fashion, beauty and design items that keep her looking fresh and feeling inspired.
