About

With over two decades of entrepreneurial and leadership experience across fashion, retail, hospitality and personal development, I’ve built brands, communities, and transformational spaces from the ground up.I came to the UK from Turkey as an au pair with a business degree, strong fashion design skills, and a determination to create something meaningful. What began as cycling door-to-door offering alterations grew into a respected fashion house rooted in creativity, trust, and exceptional service.But one lesson reshaped the entire direction of my work:True confidence isn’t something you wear.It’s something you uncover when you peel back layers of conditioning and remember who you are.After navigating identity pivots, emotional burnout and a profound personal awakening, my career expanded beyond designing for the outside to guiding women in transforming their inner world. Through breathwork, transformational coaching and somatic work, I began supporting high-achieving women, creatives, and leaders in rebuilding self-love, emotional clarity, and courage from within.Today, my work blends mindset, somatic awareness, energetic intelligence, and strategic clarity to help women move from performing to leading—with presence, compassion, and inner alignment.I am the Founder & Editor of Confidence Magazine, a publication dedicated to amplifying women’s stories and strengthening emotional wellbeing through truth, compassion and confidence-led leadership.I also host transformational retreats, creating powerful environments where women release what no longer serves them and return to themselves with renewed clarity, softness, courage and depth.At the heart of everything I do is one belief:What you cultivate within becomes what you give to the world.If your organisation, team, or personal leadership journey is ready for grounded clarity, emotional resilience and confidence from within, I’d love to connect.📩 Currently open to:• Private 1:1 clients• Corporate wellbeing + leadership workshops• Speaking engagements• Retreat collaborationswww.elifkose.com | elif@elifkose.com

About Elif Köse Fashion House Elif Köse Fashion House was born from a childhood dream and a fierce determination to redefine confidence for women through the power of fashion. Growing up under the constraints of a strict traditional Muslim household, I wasn’t allowed to express myself through what I wore. But this limitation planted a seed of creativity and resilience that would later flourish into a global brand. Starting from rock bottom, with no startup money and a second-hand sewing machine gifted to me, I built Elif Köse Fashion House from the ground up. My journey from sewing in a small corner to showcasing collections on the catwalks of Paris and New York is a testament to the transformative power of determination and vision. Our mission has always been clear: to empower women. We believe that fashion is more than clothing—it’s an armour, a statement, and a tool for self-expression. Our designs are created to help women feel confident, walk with purpose, and reflect their personality and aspirations. When you wear Elif Köse, you’re not just wearing an outfit; you’re stepping into your power as a leader, ready to take on the world. Today, Elif Köse Fashion House is a globally recognised brand that celebrates individuality, strength, and style. We remain committed to crafting pieces that inspire confidence and elevate women to be their best, most authentic selves.

The Very Vintage was created in 2011 by Elif for all those Vintage Lovers! With over 20 traders selling selected original vintage and antique items as well as vintage inspired goods. The Very Vintage show for the evening part of the event was a sell out, a musical delight that had the audience upstanding. The Rottingdean Village Hall stage hosted a high calibre show put together tailor made just for Elif by Brighton Festival Fringe award winning production company “Beside the Seaside Productions” with West End singers.

I was fascinated when I met the producer of the ‘Here Comes the Bride’ and thrilled to start working on all the costumes. When I first read the script to get an idea for the costumes and pick the colours and design I could not wait to see the musical on the stage. What a fabulous idea it was that everyone was the part of the play but we had to make all the performers look a bit different then audience. It was a great opportunity for me to design and make all the costumes for a spectacular production like this and be a part of Fringe Festival. All the costumes were made at my Tailoring, Alterations & Repairs shop in Rottingdean.
