Les Is More 894 started in 2013 originally as a small handmade jewelry boutique founded by Leslie Benigni at around 16 years old as a way to make the accessories she wanted to wear but couldn’t find in stores.

As years passed and interests changed, the small business specialized in vintage clothing.

However, this wasn’t giving the joy of creation that Leslie craved, so she went back to childhood to look for new inspiration, and that was embroidery.

Now making an homage to Victorian botanical plates, Leslie embroiders flora and fauna inspired by the detailed, extravagant time period.
