Elise Overland

Jacquard Dress

A collection from Norwegian designer Elise Overland can be tough and edgy yet remain sexy and sophisticated. Even before debuting her eponymous line in 2006, her art-school rocker chic attracted the right crowd. Just ask Steven Tyler, who handpicked the then Parsons student to design costumes for Aerosmith. Now, Overland's designs are worn by international stage sirens like Shakira, Alicia Keys, and the members of the Smashing Pumpkins. By marrying her love of tough materials with feminine silhouettes, Overland is able to offer collections for the sophisticated rocker chick.
