Currently making international headlines (Glamour UK, Vogue Australia), we would love to arrange an interview with you and breakout American fashion designer Elle Mambetov to share how she was recently released from a UK prison after serving two years before the U.S. government intervened to free her. Elle's unbelievable journey shows how a successful African American woman can go from the catwalk to the confines of a prison, and what she did when she discovered she was a victim of fraud at the hands of her own friend. Elle's story depicts true details of racism, scandal, police corruption, prison life, and sexual misconduct by a prison staff member; to name a few.

A London Fashion Week designer at the age of 26, Elle's just revealed her luxury new womenswear line Elle B. Zhou in a jaw-dropping online virtual presentation with the help of supermodel Shahad Salman. Please see here for a link to Elle's virtual collection: https://www.ellebmambet.com/.

Previously featured in Vogue, Glamour UK, ELLE, and Harper's Bazaar, Elle is poised to change the perception of modest fashion into something truly unique and sophisticated with the launch and virtual presentation of her luxury womenswear brand.

"This collection is my brain, heart and soul stretching to collide two worlds of fashionable existence. Representative of my own journey into dressing modestly; each cropped top, short sleeved shirt, and pair of trousers have been re-positioned to fit within this new world as I seek to redefine modest fashion." (- Elle B. Mambetov)

With social distancing measures in place, this virtual fashion presentation (complete with digitally constructed models) replaced her planned runway show and benefits Vogue's A Common Thread and Doctors Without Borders to raise funds for those who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Born and raised in Texas to a single mother, Mambetov's creative and identity as Black Muslim woman has been inspired by her travels - which have taken her all over the world and back. She has built brands in foreign lands, done business deals with former British Prime Minister David Cameron, and secured partnership deals with Toni & Guy and Evian. Now she returns to America with an incredible story and striking new fashion line with Los Angeles set as her home base.
