The Nashville Symphony announced that New York City-based designer Lela Rose will return to headline the 2027 Symphony Fashion Show. No stranger to the event, Rose will make her second appearance at one of Nashville's most anticipated fashion events.

Known for her bold colors and feminine silhouettes, Rose will showcase her Fall/Winter 2027 collection. She launched her namesake label in 1996 from her New York City apartment, drawing on her fine arts background to develop a distinctive style featuring lively florals, geometric patterns and unexpected details. Her career gained national attention in 2001 when she designed outfits for Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Bush to wear to their father George W. Bush's inauguration.
