There’s something almost magnetic about ’s signature pieces—those artisanal embroideries, vibrant prints, and feminine silhouettes that practically announce themselves in a crowd. They’re recognizable in the best way. But what I’ve been loving lately are the Ulla pieces that feel a little more off-the-radar, unidentifiable even—but no less exquisite.
