About Elisa C-Rossow

Elisa C-Rossow is a Montreal womenswear label making minimalist clothing, mostly in black and cream. Since 2008, it has produced its pieces locally in small runs. The look is clean and quiet, with simple shapes designed to be worn often and mixed easily with the rest of a wardrobe.

The brand suits women who prefer a few well-made pieces over constant trends. Its neutral palette makes it easy to build outfits for work, travel or an evening out. A black dress or top can carry you from a gallery opening to a dinner on the Plateau. It is a good example of Montreal fashion made close to home.
