Lillian August

In 1985 I moved to New York to build on the success of my textile and wallcovering collections. My sons, Dan and John Weiss joined me in the business and we opened our first Connecticut store on Main Street in Westport in 1987.

Operated in the tradition of European design families, each of us are strongly individualistic and highly creative in different areas. The company today has five premier home furnishings and interior design stores headed by Dan and John. They focus on exceptional selection, talented interior designers, and superior customer service. As director of licensed designs for the Lillian August brand, I oversee and design our signature furniture, textile and accessory collections.
