Elena Shvab is a Russian Israeli artist and designer with a background in costume design.
She graduated from Chelsea College of Art and Design with a degree in textile design. Working with non-conventional materials was always a fascination for Elena, and so millinery became a natural next step in her pursuit of creating and exploring new material combinations.
After completing HNC in Millinery at Kensington and Chelsea College she continues to explore new ways of creating hats mixing classic millinery techniques with non-traditional materials. Elena’s studio is based in London. She is working on her new collections, collaboration with fashion designers and private custom made orders for weddings and Royal Ascot.
