Kelly Hoppen is the Dragon associated with the interior-design brand Kelly Hoppen Interiors.
Hoppen is a British interior designer known for a design style built around clean lines, neutral palettes and a concept she has described as East Meets West. She developed her own design practice and brand before joining Dragons' Den as an investor.
Her work has included residential interiors, hotels, aircraft interiors, furniture and home accessories. That broad design background shaped the way she assessed pitches involving visual identity, product presentation and consumer appeal. She became a Dragon for the programme's eleventh series, broadcast in 2014, and remained on the panel for several series.
Kelly Hoppen Interiors is the name associated with her design business and brand activities. It should not be confused with a single product line or with the separate companies in which she invested on television. Hoppen's public profile combines design authorship, commercial licensing and investment.
