Emilia Wickstead is a UK luxury designer clothing label for women, founded in London in 2008 by Emilia Wickstead. Born in New Zealand, Wickstead spent her formative years in Milan before studying Design and Marketing at Central Saint Martins, graduating with honours in 2007. She worked with American Vogue and at fashion houses before founding her label with a unique made-to-measure model, opening her first store in Belgravia in 2009. Today the collections include seasonal ready-to-wear dresses and gowns in fabrics such as cloqué, mikado and velvet, plus skirts, knitwear, tailoring and coats, as well as bridalwear, homeware and bespoke and made-to-order services. Ready-to-wear is made mainly in Italy, with bespoke pieces created in its West London atelier. Known for its fluent use of colour and exacting craftsmanship, the label combines tradition and the romance of bygone eras with refined silhouettes and contemporary twists. Emilia Wickstead has shown at London Fashion Week since 2011 and is a favourite of the Princess of Wales. It won Red Carpet Designer of the Year at the 2014 Elle Style Awards, opened its Sloane Street flagship in 2022 and is sold by Net-a-Porter, Harrods and Neiman Marcus.
