Retta Tussey’s Creative Journey in St. Louis
Episode 29
Wednesday, 11 March, 2026
In this episode of House of Lou, host Veronica Theodoro is joined by the multifaceted St. Louis designer Retta Tussey. Their conversation takes us on a years’-long journey through Retta’s career as an interior designer, to the launching of her fashion brand Retta Jane, and the opening—this fall—of a showroom and reading room in Clayton. We can’t wait to see what that project looks like! Throughout the years, Retta has weathered the ups and downs, twists and turns that we tend to associate with a creative career, and she shares the stories and lessons with us in her interview. Today, the St. Louis native finds herself at the intersection of fashion and interior design, as she balances designing a collection of clothes for tween girls and women, and an ever-growing list of clients who are thrilled with her return to the field of interior design. This melding of creative pursuits feels true to who Retta’s always been, and we can’t wait to see how far she takes it. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about entrepreneurship, resilience, and personal and professional growth. Watch the episode on YouTube and listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
