All about Elsi Marie
Elsi Marie is inspired by frivolity, joy, and classic beauty.
Elsi Marie began with the motivation to design clothes for a specific aesthetic and style that is not catered to in the market. Founder and designer, Elsi Grabau, found herself struggling to find clothes that felt like art. I feel as if fashion is the highest form of art, it should make you joyful when you look at it, perfect and ecstatic when you wear it, and make everyone else gaze in awe at what you are wearing.
At Elsi Marie I design wearable art. Wether you need something for a special event or just to add to your closet, I have art available for you!
My fashion design journey began a long time ago, in the fourth grade, making my mom draw croquis for me to draw my designs on top of. Flash forward to now, I have participated in multiple regional fashion weeks including Kansas City Fashion Week and Omaha Fashion Week.
Now I am a freshman at the Fashion Institute of Technology and am majoring in fashion design. I plan to continue to progress my education and experience in fashion design as well as participating in KCFW again soon.
