Dutch born designer Ilja Visser first launched her namesake couture collection in 2005. International recognition came after Ilja showed her collection at Amsterdam Fashion week; this marked the official stepping-stone in her career. In 2009 she established her fashion house.
In 2011 Ilja Visser was the first designer to receive the prestigious Dutch annual fashion stipendium from the Prince Bernhard Cultural Foundation. ILJA makes her official debut in the highest fashion league when she got invited by the Fédération Française de la Couture in Paris to present her FW 15/16 couture collection INGENIUM EXISTERE on their official haute couture calendar.
