About Us

Marie Linker opened her first fashion boutique in Sydney at only 21. She quickly expanded her venture establishing not only her name but 5 more boutiques within Sydney. At the same time she helped distribute Australia’s top fashion designers like Charlie Brown, Cover and Lisa Ho. Marie then expanded into design and the manufacture of her very own fashion label “Marie Cie”.Ten years ago she began specializing in Mother of the Bride & Groom. Today Marie’s experience and fashion sense are the corner stones of her business “L’Elegante more than just fashion. It is a way a of life”. The head office is located in Sydney’s exclusive Double Bay.

At L’Elegante we are focused on bridal and high-end evening wear. Our labels are European and Australian designers. Marie travels to Milan and Paris every 12 weeks to provide Australia’s fashionistas with such designer labels as Valentino, Dorian Ho Collection, Gai Mattialo and Emaluel Ungaro of Paris. Marie holds credit for dressing 2004′s Miss Universe-Australia’s very own Jennifer Hawkins. Marie dressed Jennifer for her official Miss Universe publicity photos. The Australian National costume that was worn in Ecuador by Jennifer was designed by Paris Dwyer. We look forward to seeing you at our shop in Double Bay. Please feel free to call or email us details of your special occasion.
