Eskell

Kelly Whitesell and Elizabeth Del Castillo met at the age of 14 when they realized their shared interest in digging through thrift and antique stores, secretly competing in the quest for the best finds. The girls both entered a costume design program linked to the prestigious Indiana University School of Music. This small program in the middle of Indiana is where the vision of Eskell was born. Upon graduation, Kelly worked as design assistant for the label Miguelina and cut her teeth at labels such as Mayle; while Elizabeth traveled the world doing fabric sourcing for Spiegel. With their combined backgrounds in Costume & Fashion Design, Apparel Merchandise and Business, this intrepid twosome put their heads and skills together to create Eskell.

The philosophy of Eskell is deeply threaded in that of personal style. The idea that clothing is a chance to engage in life and self-expression is one of the best things about being a woman. Eskell is about clothing that is feminine and classy yet always wanting to look modern and sexy.
