Elaine Turner, a multifaceted fashion designer, life coach, and entrepreneur from Houston, Texas, has made significant strides in the fashion industry with her handbag, shoe, and apparel collections, alongside running multiple retail outlets.
Beyond her professional achievements, Elaine is deeply committed to her family and community, actively supporting causes related to women’s empowerment, mental health, and more.
After closing her original brand due to retail shifts, she redirected her focus towards empowering women, launching an e-course titled “Know Your Worth” to help women reclaim their self-worth.
In 2023, Elaine made a comeback in the fashion world with “Edit by Elaine Turner,” a line of luxury handbags and accessories, embodying timeless elegance and classic design.
Her journey reflects a blend of creativity, resilience, and a continuous commitment to personal and community growth.
Also, Elaine was a wonderful client for us at Laura U Design Collective, so yes, she can do it all! Join us as we chat with her to find out just how she does it.

Monogram is a long time partner and go to for us at DesignDash, as well as our design firm, Laura U Design Collective. We love them because they believe in three main pillars that we, as creatives, can easily get behind: sourcing superior Materials, offering high-quality Performance, and taking Ownership. Each of these upholds their commitment to high quality, innovation, and their ongoing relationships with designers and homeowners.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- It’s okay to put yourself first. You have to be in the right place with yourself before you can take care of others.
- There will be challenges and struggles as you find yourself. You won’t be prepared for all of them, but you will come out stronger on the other side.
- You can find joy in your second act!
