Ell IX is a concept brand approaching design through the lens of alchemy, seeking to transmute ideas and materials into something more. While originally starting out as a clothing and RTW brand in 2016, the label has since outgrown the borders of fashion alone, and branched into many other forms. Ell IX Studios believes there are no limits or confines to design; the final creations being objects that materialize the expressions and feelings that words seldom describe.

Influences from fantasy and historical design are grounded in contemporary styles with modern day materials. Ellix designs for an alternate world, one he hopes one day to see, one where there are no limitations or repercussions to individual expression. By synthesizing natural concepts and warping the natural into something new, Ell IX brings together the physical and the spiritual to create modern day magick in every design. Reoccurring motifs that can be found in the latest bodies of work include transparency, transformation, light, metal, crystallization, movement, and celestial energy.

With a queer trans and disabled designer at the helm, it is at the heart of our ethos to dismantle gender and body constructs and ableist expectation within fashion and art.

Ell IX Studios is currently based out of Montreal, Canada.
