Elisabeth Koch was born in Atlanta, Georgia of 3/4 Dutch and 1/4 Welsh parents. To date, she has lived in the USA, Berlin, Luxembourg, Bombay, London, Amsterdam, Brussels, The Hague and currently resides in Beijing. All these cities continue to inspire and contribute to her millinery success.
Elisabeth has a keen eye for colour, design and fashion. She has been sewing, painting, drawing, moulding and generally involved in various creative projects since she was a child.
Always having been a head-wear fanatic, Elisabeth started her own vintage Collection Privée as a teenager. This led her to attend the renowned Wombourne School of Millinery in the UK. After graduation, she set up Elisabeth Koch Millinery in order to realise the hats in her sketchbooks.
Every hat is a work of art and no two are alike. Her hats have been worn by royalty and have gone to Ascot, the Melbourne Cup and weddings world-wide. She designs exclusively for herself and accommodates a custom-made fit for clients. Please contact Elisabeth to have a hat made-to-measure or make an appointment to view her showroom. |
