“I Love Lamp” may bring to mind the deadpan humour of 2004’s Anchorman, but for London-based demi-couturier Ellie Misner, it’s the title of her latest collection – a tongue-in-cheek homage to her lifelong fascination with, well… lamps. “Got to have a little millennial cringe in there to balance out the classiness of couture,” she jokes. More specifically, the decorative lampshades and Erté sketches that adorned her grandmother and nan’s flats respectively. (Misner usually pulls inspiration from friends and family members; she says, ‘ When I make a piece I have a muse in my head and then I design that piece around the person I’m thinking of.”)
These influences shine through in the offering, most vividly in a strapless, corseted column dress with a stiff, beaded peplum that’s dripping with pearls and shells that used to be part of an actual lampshade sourced at a carboot sale, and in the fluted lines of her impeccably tailored skirts. Misner’s own standout? A bold-shouldered, ‘Cruella’ dress in chartreuse features a “fur”-trimmed collar and sleeves crafted ingeniously from fabric scraps – making it an undeniably chic, zero-waste piece. “I’ve not really experimented with tailoring before and this piece was really special to me,” she says.
Launching her brand during Covid, Misner’s creations sit under the banner of demi-couture, or as she describes it, “a more accessible couture.” Her work combines the precision and luxury of couture techniques with a healthy dose of irreverent fun. Referencing this cheekiness, she says, “She’s chic, she’s couture but she’s definitely having fun,” adding, “I love creating beautiful clothes, but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. Everyone should get to be a little silly!”
This makes sense considering the London-based designer is a self-proclaimed lover of camp. “I love whimsy, I love camp, but I pride myself on also making pieces beautifully,” she says, balancing her playful sensibilities with a commitment to making each piece feel unique and luxurious. “It’s important to me that when someone receives something, they feel truly gorgeous in it and it feels special,” she says. Her commitment to quality has won her a growing roster of fans, with celebrities like Julia Fox, Raye and Katy Perry (recall that crimson, bum crack-baring twinset the singer wore to the Billboard Women In Music event earlier this year), stepping out in her sculptural gowns. “I just love dressing women that love clothes, that’s the best part for me.”
