While some designers only show their affection for the art and music scene at benefit events, Elise Øverland’s connection to those creative circles runs deeper than most. The Norwegian-born New York-base designer has long outfitted her downtown pals and arts section all-stars (including artist Hope Atherton and Elephant’s Diego Garcia) with elegantly rebellious leather, lambskin, and silk threads. While she prepares to unveil her stage-ready fall collection (which she’ll show later this week as one of Ecco Domani’s elite circle of designers), Øverland reveals what sounds like music to her ears. It’s no surprise–considering her classic rock aesthetic–that more than a few hall of famers top her list:
Elise Øverland’s Top 10 Iconic Rock Bands
• Led Zeppelin
• Pink Floyd
• The Doors
• Rolling Stones
• Jimi Hendrix
• David Bowie
• Steven Tyler/ Aerosmith (He’s the most amazing stage performer)
• Elvis
• Os Mutantes (a quite interesting band emerging out of the Brazilian psychedelic 60’s movement)
• White Stripes (one of my favorites as far as newer bands)
