Biography

Demetrios James Elias was born in Warren, Ohio, to a family of Greek heritage. His passion for fashion led him to New York, where in 1980 he acquired Ilissa Bridals — a legendary boutique in Manhattan.

Two years later, in 1982, he founded his own company — Demetrios Bridal. Today the brand is represented in over 3,000 boutiques across more than 60 countries, with Areti as the exclusive representative in Bulgaria.
