Ellie Owen
If we played guess the designer I would never guess that this was the work of a small business owner trying to get his line to where other premier high fashion houses are; these shoots just blow my mind. One reason is that the photographer is so good, what aspiring designer produces these kinds of shots? Second of all the actual designs are beautiful, I mean aside from the fact that the photographer captured the clothes so well there is only so much that camera tricks can do. The line is really good.
This is the backwards blazer and honestly this is my favorite dress from this line. I already declared Dalia the best (small business) high end dress maker of the year and I won't take that back but this dress is really creative and I will say this, these are the people that you need to be looking out for because designers like Kesh, Leon (designer of Ellie Owen), Kat (designer of Katitude) and Dalia are the future of fashion and it's refreshing to see the direction that they are going in.
There are other piece's in the line that are just as wonderful as these couture dresses. There are skirts and jeans that show ingenuity. He designed a pair of jeans for women that hook under the heel so they don't move.
Aside from designing Leon is also a writer.

If the fact that your dresses are sick doesn't get you where your trying to go then you can always throw a familiar mug in one of your get ups.
