Our Story
New York City, Eliza Christoph is an ethical luxury fashion brand with the mission of creating the world's most exquisite dresses, skirts, pants, shirts, kaftans, and silk scarves while improving women's livelihoods in Kenya. Founder Liz Njoroge Ramsey, Creative Director, launched Eliza Christoph after years of travel, research, and development in Africa.
Kenyan-American Founder and Creative Director Liz is inspired by her upbringing in Nairobi, Kenya, where women wear vibrant prints and sophisticated clothing for everyday life and celebrations. Having spent her childhood in Nairobi, Kenya, and later in New York City, U.S., Liz's designs blend African print inspirations with New York City modernism. She mixes vibrant and colorful prints with timeless silhouettes to create luxury staples that add effortless sophistication to any wardrobe.
At its company-owned factory in Nairobi, Kenya, Eliza Christoph employs highly skilled artisans, paid a fair wage and benefits, to handcraft their luxury clothing. Many pieces' unique detailing is made possible by artisans' traditional hand-stitching techniques and careful craftsmanship. For clothing and accessories made in Italy, a portion of the profits go back to the communities where Eliza Christoph's artisans live and work.
