Founded by artist and seamstress Laura Elrick in 2011, Dress a Shade began with a simple idea: to transform lampshades through thoughtful design and beautiful craftsmanship.

With an artist’s eye and a seamstress’s attention to detail, Laura creates handmade slipcovers that give existing lampshades a fresh perspective.

In 2026, Dress a Shade returns with the same creative spirit, a renewed vision, and a commitment to making something truly special, one shade at a time.
