Cut by hand, for one person at a time
Elle Couture began as an atelier, not a warehouse. Every piece we make is cut, beaded and finished by hand for the person who ordered it, not pulled from a shelf. That's still true of everything we ship today.
Designed by Vesa Qarrolli
Vesa Qarrolli has worked in fashion for more than 10 years. She graduated at Akademia Evolucion, Kosovo's leading private school for fashion design, and spent years working alongside different well known fashion designers before starting on her own. Sewing runs in her family too: they've worked as tailors for more than a 100 years, and that hands-on, made-to-measure approach is what she's built Elle Couture around.
Vesa is the founder of both Elle Crown & Accessories and Elle Couture, and still designs and manages each personally. Every silhouette, fabric choice and fitting note on this site comes from her. Follow her work on Instagram @vesaqarrolli.
Rooted in Kosovo, made for anywhere
Our showrooms are in Prishtina and Drenas, where our atelier does the cutting, fitting and finishing on every order. From there, we ship worldwide, and we're opening showrooms in Dublin and New York next, so more of you can try a piece on before it's made.
How we work
We design for real occasions: weddings, receptions, evenings that matter, and build each piece to hold its shape through all of them. Fabric, beadwork and fit come first; trends come second. If a measurement isn't quite right, we adjust it before it ships, at no extra cost.
What's next
We're a small team growing carefully: new collections, new showrooms and, eventually, new ways for you to be fitted from wherever you are. Follow along on Instagram @_ellecouture__ or get in touch, we love hearing from the people wearing what we make.
