Canadian-British, London-based designer EDELINE LEE grew up in Vancouver, Canada, before moving to London and graduating from Central Saint Martins. After working at luxury labels including Zac Posen, Alexander McQueen and Christian Dior, Edeline launched her own label at London Fashion Week where she is known for her immersive and performative shows. All Edeline Lee pieces are made by hand in England and are designed for the 'Future Lady'; a multifaceted heroine of her own creation, and the driving force behind her designs.
Sustainability is an important part of the brand's ethos, with fabrics dyed and finished in Yorkshire and Leicester and every piece made by hand in London to support local craftsmanship, responsible production, and a slower approach to fashion. The focus is on timeless, high-quality garments designed to be worn and valued for years to come.
Edeline has received strong support from the women of the art world, who naturally gravitate towards her aesthetically sophisticated signature. Her work has also been worn by many celebrities and key figures including Olivia Colman, Cate Blanchett, Sally Hawkins, Gemma Chan, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Helen Mirren, Olivia Williams, Cynthia Nixon, Alicia Vikander, Taylor Swift, Ciara, Amy Fine Collins, Elaine Welteroth, Kelly Ripa, Ellie Goulding, Solange Knowles, Christy Turlington, Vanessa Williams, Tina Fey, Andie MacDowell, Sandra Oh, Lady Victoria Starmer, Lady Claire Turner, Queen Rania of Jordan and Kate Middleton, The Princess of Wales.
This year, the brand celebrates its 15th anniversary
