Ellen Van Dusen is the Brooklyn-based designer and founder of Dusen Dusen, a home goods and clothing brand best known for it’s bold, fun, and geometric patterns. You can find Ellen’s maximalist designs on everything from tissue boxes to towels, and even on your TV like when Harry Styles wore a Dusen Dusen smiley face sweater on SNL while pretending to be a dog or Hannah’s dress in HBO’s Girls. Van Dusen also does lots of rad collaborations such as the colorful “Cleo Chair” she made with Dims (that has a waitlist open!) and the t-shirts she made for Uniqlo. Ellen clearly has great taste and lucky for us, she’s here to talk about what she’s been into.
