About The Designer

22 year old Elise Truong has always been surrounded by clothing design. She practically lived in her mothers tailoring shop as a toddler and grew up digesting design techniques and daydreamed about clothing she would create. Throughout her education Elise has always been known as someone fascinated by high alternative fashions and wasn't ever a great student since she would draw clothing designs rather than focus on her work.

Elise's personal styles have inspirations from fairytales, japanese alternative, cartoons and 80s culture; styles which you can see throughout her collections. The main passion has always been corsetry. A type of garment that accentuates the figure and is basically an art canvas you can do anything to. The corset patterns she makes have inspirations from the victorian and edwardian era and the current world of fetishism. Mix that in with her signature style and you get a true Sweet Carousel one-of-a-kind garment.
