LBS Designs
Tuesday, 1 September, 2026
Lalania Balas is the founder of LBS Designs, creating hand painted canvas totes and Italian silk scarves inspired by the places we love and the places we want to go.Her career began in New York City’s Garment Center, spanning fashion, product development and accessories companies including Daniel Wellington, where she worked with early influencer programs and brand partnerships. She later moved into talent management in Los Angeles, helping influencers translate their personal brands into product.Covid took her to Boca Grande to hide out with family and recharge. A longtime boat & tote girl from growing up in Maine, she wanted to paint the places she loved onto the bags she was already carrying and realized she wasn’t seeing them in the local shops she loved. So she figured out how to paint on canvas and built LBS around bringing that idea to retail.Today, LBS works with local retailers near Boca Grande and Palm Beach in the winter, then heads north for summer collaborations with partners including Erica Wilson, Coniglio and Montauk Yacht Club, creating small batch pieces rooted in place, heritage and a little imperfection.
