Inspired by the mid-century Bohemians of Paris and the Bloomsbury Group, Alix Verley-Pietrafesa picked up a needle and began making clothes by hand. Seeking to create pieces that reflected the free-spirited muses of her studies and facilitated adventure, her label was formally established in London in 2009.

Alix currently resides in New York and sews daily in her Atelier with her team, producing limited runs, one-of-a-kind pieces and custom commissions by appointment. In 2018, Alix of Bohemia expanded beyond her bespoke pieces, and began designing and producing collections for the annual seasons.
