Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin is a seventh-generation descendant of shipping and railroad tycoon, Cornelius Vanderbilt, and great-great-great niece of Consuelo Vanderbilt, the Duchess of Marlborough. Forging her own path away from the traditional debutante scene, Consuelo has made significant strides in both music and business. Her accomplishments have been highlighted in prestigious publications such as Vogue, Town & Country, 25A, Prestige, Paper, and Raine Magazine.
As a successful musician, Consuelo has performed globally, sharing stages with renowned artists like Vanessa Carlton, Mya, and Joe Cocker. She secured her first record deal at the age of 21 and went on to found her own record label, C&R Productions, in 2010. Her first four singles reached the Top 20 on the Billboard Dance Charts, with her debut single “Naked” spending 16 weeks on the charts. Her follow-up single “Feel So Alive” earned her Billboard’s #2 Breakout Artist honor. In 2014, her hit “Body Needs” broke into Billboard’s Top 5, and her highly anticipated pop dance album, I’m Just Me, was released in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the United States in 2015.
In the fashion industry, Consuelo made her mark by teaming up with HSN in 2015 to launch Homage by Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin, a pearl jewelry collection inspired by an heirloom engagement ring from her great-grandmother, Consuelo Vanderbilt Earl. This ring is believed to have once belonged to Consuelo, the Duchess of Marlborough.
As an entrepreneur, Consuelo is the co-founder and president of SohoMuse, an invitation-only professional network for the creative industries launched in 2018. SohoMuse aims to be the trusted source for the global creative community, providing a platform for top creatives such as Peter Landesman, Fern Mallis, and Nicole Miller to network and collaborate.
Consuelo’s dedication to philanthropy is evident in her work with various Ovarian Cancer organizations in memory of her beloved mother. She serves on the committee for the Gabriel’s Foundation, is the philanthropic ambassador for Mercedes-Benz perfume, and chaired the American Heart Association in 2016.
Throughout her career, Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin has demonstrated her ability to excel in diverse fields, from music and fashion to technology and philanthropy, continually building on her family’s legacy of success.
