Katy Elliott opened her first retail store The Hangar in August 2019. With 20 years of experience working in many corners of the fashion industry from retail Visual Merchandising through to styling and buying and her ethos on fashion, opening her first store was the next step in her career. 

Throughout her career Katy has worked for many luxury brands so craftsmanship and sustainability is something she felt passionately about. From this concept THE HANGAR was launched, and so it begins.
At The Hangar we want the modern woman to be able to shop more savvy, whilst still honoring a true sense of personal style. Wanting to encourage our consumers to shop differently, looking at quality of the product as an investment and how utilizing and experimenting with their wardrobe by introducing staples and show-stopping outfits, can be a more sustainable way of shopping.

Katy believes clothes do not go out of fashion, style is how you wear something, not what you wear.
Alongside the current season collections we sell, we are also Lucky enough to offer our customers huge discounts on some of our sample pieces. Wether these are from a previous season or mostly from a season ahead.
