Products

Ellaè Lisquè sells luxury women’s fashion pieces for special occasions and milestone celebrations, such as birthdays, date nights, work promotions, and proposals. The brand also intentionally creates designs for women who are stepping into a new version of themselves and need a new look – they might be celebrating a new business venture or marking a post-divorce fresh start. Ellaè Lisquè provides the ‘armor’ for their next chapter.

  • Catsuits

Sizing

Ellaè Lisquè has an inclusive size range, starting at XS with extended sizes available. The brand operates on the principle that style should never be limited by size and that curvy women deserve to feel just as beautiful, sexy, and fashion-forward as everyone else. Ellaè Lisquè’s inclusive size range across their collections makes all women feel feminine, powerful, and confident. 

Design Process

A common misconception is that Ellaè Lisquè is a standard online boutique that labels wholesale garments. In reality, it’s a fully independent luxury designer brand. They don't buy wholesale products and instead design clothes in-house, working with manufacturing partners for production.

Ellaè Lisquè’s product development includes fit testing, sampling, fabric sourcing, revisions, and problem-solving. They prioritize fit and craftsmanship, using high-quality fabrics such as chiffon, lace, satin, and linen to create lavish pieces for all women.

Pricing

Ellaè Lisquè offers luxury styles at a more attainable price point, with most items costing $240 to $250. Shipping expenses aren’t included in this cost, but Ellaè Lisquè offers payment plans for its items, making them more accessible to women on a budget.

Maxie James founded the brand on the belief that women should have access to unique, luxury designs that make them feel powerful, feminine, confident, and expensive, without having to spend thousands of dollars to achieve that feeling.

Shipping

Ellaè Lisquè ships worldwide. International customers may experience different shipping timelines depending on location. Customs duties and import fees also vary.

Clients can schedule an appointment to visit their physical location in Los Angeles, California, for a showroom experience where they can view select pieces or arrange local pickup.
