Molly Bloom was 11 years old when the first season of “Project Runway” went on the air in 2004. It was the first time she saw adults doing anything involving fashion and it made her aware of what she was wearing.

I purchased a home in August of 2020 in my hometown of Lewiston, NY and completed the renovation in April of 2021. DWELL, with the help of writer Leah Bhabha, highlights what it was like to work alongside my father, design intentions, sourcing, and using the home as a source of inspiration.

“For designer Molly Bloom, who is based in Lewiston, New York State, a single encounter with a jumpsuit clarified her point of view. In 2015, she purchased a 1930s one-piece Women Airforce Service Pilot uniform at a thrift shop in Tennessee. The vintage garment was sturdy yet comfortable, and fit its new wearer perfectly. “That jumpsuit set the course for me to rethink collections with focus and simplicity,” she says. Later this year, Bloom will launch a line of men’s and women’s jumpsuits, which she sees as “a uniform for hard-workers”. She is prioritising fit and size inclusivity – instead of basing her women’s prototype on the ready-to-wear standard of a US 2 or 4, she’ll use an 8. “To me, a jumpsuit replaces the suit and, like a suit, it should fit impeccably,” the designer adds.” -The Financial Times: How to Spend It, by Leah Bhabha
