Our Story
The Founders
It all started with a dream of two friends. Stacey and Christy started their journey as entrepreneurs with an idea. The idea to inspire women around the globe in their reach for individual beauty. The idea became our commitment and our commitment became L' Atelier Évoque.
L' Atelier Évoque's path is designed by:
- 10 years of strong friendship
- 5 years since the decision to launch the brand
- 2 years of L' Atelier Évoque presence on the international stage
By this we devoted ourselves to hundreds of exhibitions and travels, thousands of sketches, millions of working hours and an endless potion of passion to make every woman feel unique.
In her dream, every woman’s beauty shines in the spotlight.
Our aspiration with our dresses is to turn her dream into reality. Nothing less.
Christy Bellham
Founder and Creative Director at L' Atelier Évoque
My love for fashion began during my time as a model. I modelled for 10 years and had the opportunity to see the world and work on incredible campaigns with most talented and professional people and brands. My many experiences and moments in the fashion industry shaped my vision and my understanding of what I wanted to achieve with a brand.
Travels always been a main ingredient of my inspiration. All the impressions I was able to capture and inhale transformed into endless ideas. And so many of those ideas my team and I were able to bring to life.
In those dreams and thoughts the L'Atelier Évoque woman always took the main stage - what dresses she wears, how she spends her time, how she feels, walks and finally appears to her imaginary audience. Beautiful mages float in my thoughts — whether on a tropical island or in the magical gardens of Paris. These inspirations come with our work into reality.
My dream is to help every woman feel special.
Every time I wear an L' Atelier Évoque dress, I feel like a princess, and I want to share that unforgettable feeling with every woman.
Stacey Williams
Founder and Designer at L' Atelier Évoque
My father was a pilot. From his travels around the world he brought me beautiful dresses. What he brought me from the sky, I felt unique with, special. The feeling of a child to have something no one else had. Given by the man I loved the most. That love turned into a dream — to create dresses every woman feels dancing in the clouds with her man of her dreams to finally descend and feel as unique as I did as a child.
My credo for my work is as simple as crucial-every seam, every stitch is not just part of the construction- it is every reflection of my attention to detail and my pursuit of perfection. The quality of craftsmanship is what makes a garment truly special.
The dresses we create are not just fabric and thread — each design carries a story, an emotion, and great deal of work we put our soul into. I believe a dress should not only adorn a woman. It needs to put her into the spotlight. This belief inspires me every day.
