After the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic she made fashion-related YouTube videos to entertain friends sheltering in place. [2] Her profile grew tremendously when she created a TikTok at the encouragement of her daughter, Ivy. [2] She amassed 540,000 followers after four months on the platform. [5] Her videos share style tips and outfit ideas, usually featuring clothing from Rockmore's closet. [5] Carina Chocano described the effect of the videos in The New York Times , "those of us unable to “shop” our closets as though they were luxury stores can do so vicariously in Rockmore’s. Her wardrobe also has the other appeal of a museum: it feels archival, historical, not amassed but curated." [4]

In May 2022, she partnered with Amazon's The Drop to design and release an online collection, Carla Rockmore x The Drop. [1] She independently released a capsule collection in May 2023. [6]
