About the Brand:

If you think of vision and mission as an organization’s head and heart, the values it holds are its soul.

―Buzotta

Founded in 2010 Between the Sheets has been manufacturing in lingerie and loungewear in New York City’s historic garment center for over a decade. The line began with seasonal collections and wholesale offerings, and transitioned to core collections and direct to consumer brand in 2015. Our ethos on production, fashion calendars, and manufacturing has evolved as we moved to the Hudson Valley in 2017 and are building a home for our brand outside of NYC. 

Our hands have always touched every detail of from sourcing, design, construction/production, marketing, and distribution. We strive to put our values and love into every piece that goes from us to you.

About BTS blog:

Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend and protect and celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond.
― Robin Wall Kimmerer

So much goes on behind the scenes of a product and brand, and when we moved to the Hudson Valley in 2017 from New York City which I had called home for more than a decade a new chapter in my personal and professional life began. This transition was not without bumps, the toll of focusing on work for my entire adult life to that point left me with a need that this new home and garden filled. Here I was selling people clothes to wear and enjoy their homes, but I rarely enjoyed mine. I set about to find balance, discover my green thumb, rekindle long lost hobbies, and explore my creativity in ways that were not monetized or advertised.

This blog sat quiet but in 2024 I set upon a project to go back & post all my journey’s and experiences. The harder moments of these journeys might not be all there, since these posts and my voice benefits from the luxury of hindsight, but at least it explains my relative quiet on my social and professional platforms. I like a seed, needed to germinate in darkness.

So now in addition to behind the scenes of running my fashion brand, I want this space to reflect my *whole self* and creative journey. There have been so many spiritual and healing lessons I have found in my garden, in the grounding force of nature, and in my relationships with plants that I think many can relate to. And during the pandemic I started a whole second brand Homespice Vintage, that evolved from my a lifelong love of hunting antiques and a desire to make creating a sustainable home with character and vintage goods more accessible.

Going forward I hope this space becomes a space to explore beauty and creativity in all its forms, and discuss how we can live modern lives more sustainably and connect with the natural world and all the healing, lessons, and answers it hold for us. And more honestly, how as a brand owner how I balance the push back against consumerism and high visibility in my efforts to hold onto the groundedness I found here.


The trees have taught me that you can experience a whole life while staying in one place, the world around you changes and so too do you. The plants have taught me the generosity of seeds, that even when one generation leaves for winter the seeds of a new generation are still in the soil. The flowers have taught me that beauty also has a purpose, to us they bring joy but to bees and pollinators they brings sustenance. Mushrooms have taught me the cycle of renewal, that even in decay there is new life. And watching this web of life interact on my property has reminded me to step back from the ego driven culture of constant production that has thrown our planet off it’s natural rhythm and balance. I don’t want to be another brand pushing mindless consumption, and as a person I don’t want to be a brand.

―Layla
