Elizabeth DuBois

Founding Resident

FLAT 128 was inspired by founder Elizabeth DuBois after living in London throughout her 20s. Modern New York has long held a love for British design and culture and Elizabeth is one of those Anglophiles…

Growing up in New York, Elizabeth was constantly on the search for the most original, and interesting jewelry pieces. Her passion for design and jewelry became stronger as she moved between London and New York and back again. Increasingly she began to notice and identify the emotional connection women have with jewelry. The ability to feel powerful, fun, coy and unique can come as quickly as changing a ring, necklace or set of earrings. This was the spark.

From her numerous trips back and forth between her two favorite cities, Elizabeth was consistently asked by friends – and strangers – where she bought this ring or that necklace. None of these pieces were being sold in New York.

Elizabeth decided to set out to bring her dreams to reality: owning a UK lifestyle store in her favorite New York City neighborhood. She has used her years of experience in the fashion, art and PR worlds with access to amazing emerging talent in the UK, to create FLAT 128.
