Building a Fashion Empire and a Life in Jackson Hole with Lela Rose

Fashion designer Lela Rose has spent almost thirty years building her ready-to-wear and bridal label. But when she left New York for Jackson Hole, Wyoming, she opened something completely different — a tiny log cabin store called Lela Rose Ranch.
