Elizabeth Damrich

Interior Designer

The ever-stylish Elizabeth is one of our brand ambassadors down in Charleston, South Carolina. An up-and-coming interior designer and longtime-wearer of Industry Standard, she knows how to rock a pair of Margots and a deliciously cozy sweater like no other. We had the pleasure of hanging out with her and her cat, Jean-Luc, in her stunning 19th century home—decorated by her, naturally.

If you could go back in time, you would go to:

The early 90's during the best days of childhood. I'd eat popsicles all day, climb Magnolia trees and play in the sprinklers with all the kids in the neighborhood.
