Dreaming Eli is a London-based fashion brand founded by Italian designer Elisa Trombatore following her MA graduation from Central Saint Martins in 2021. Her debut collection, supported by the Isabella Blow Foundation, received critical attention in publications such as Vogue Runway, i-D Italy, and 10Magazine. Informed by her Sicilian upbringing, Trombatore explores the contradictions of femininity through garments that empower women to rebel against stereotypes and embrace their true selves. Since its debut at London Fashion Week, the brand has presented two collections each year while committing to slow fashion through made-to-order production, upcycled materials, and adjustable, long-lasting designs.
