New York Embroidery Studio to bring 500 jobs to Sunset Park with new lease at Brooklyn Army Terminal

NYES-1

New York Embroidery Studio, a collaboration between luxury fashion designers Caroline Herrera, Ralph Lauren, and Oscar de la Renta, is moving to Sunset Park, signing the largest new lease in three years at the Brooklyn Army Terminal.

The high fashion company, known for helping brands embellish garments with decorative stitching and rhinestones, pivoted at the height of the pandemic to make personal protective equipment like masks and hospital gowns. Founder Michelle Feinberg and her team made over 590,000 hospital gowns in just nine weeks while keeping hundreds of New Yorkers employed even as the city’s economy dwindled.
