Dreaming Eli is a womenswear fashion brand by the London-based Italian designer, Elisa Trombatore.

After graduating from the MA Fashion course at Central Saint Martins in 2021, her graduate collection, supported by the Isabella Blow Foundation, has been featured in several magazines, such Vogue Runway, Vogue Italia Talents, i-D Italy, 10Magazine, Harper Bazaar, L’Officiel, the Evening Standard and more, attracting the attention of many celebrities, from Zara Larsson and Rita Ora, to Julia Fox, Munroe Bergdorf and Stefflon Don.

Dreaming Eli's collections are meant to demonstrate the power, danger, and beauty of contradiction inherent in femininity. The ultimate goal is to empower women through design, giving them tools to rebel against stereotypes and glorify their true selves. The designer’s obsession with female empowerment comes from her Sicilian heritage and the experience of a totally submissive as well as passionate womanhood. She firmly believes that it's from powerless environments that the most potent forces can arise.

Having made its debut at London Fashion Week in 2021, with Discovery Lab, the brand has been a consistent presence in the evening schedule of LFW, showcasing two collections annually for the first two years. This February, Dreaming Eli has debuted on the main schedule of LFW with an emotional presentation in a church in central London showcasing the latest AW24 collection, The Dead Woman Talks Back.

Dreaming Eli’s collections have also been supported by the WHITE Milan Showroom since 2022 where the brand has since presented its products to international buyers and press every season during MFW. AW24 has also been presented for the first time during PFW in an intimate showroom.
