Elise Design was founded in 2004 by designer Thu Nguyen in Sydney, Australia. The label was named after her daughter Elise An Nolte.
The idea for her clothes comes from her love of vintage fashion and her cultural background. Every garment is a mixture of high quality fabric, beautiful prints and great design in which she was been involved in every step from travelling overseas to source materials to working with tailors to create unique pieces. As the business has developed, the label has expanded to a number of boutiques both in Australia and overseas.
Thu’s desire to build the label comes not only from her passion for fashion but also for a wish to have a legacy for her daughter. She puts something of herself into every design, something she hopes people appreciate when they wear the garment.
