This week they won!

Lurline is making waves as the Albinali sisters have created the perfect balance of what women love today, a balance between modern femininity intertwined with a darker, more gothic side. 

An aesthetic that combines texture, color, volume, experimental materials, feathers and shine paired with sharp, loose silhouettes. Defining femininity as a saturated yet refined experimental look.

Bold styles with a bold mission.

Sustainability, as it should, is at the top of their priorities. They are committed to environmentally conscious practices and have a strong anti-fast-fashion motto. Combining classic and modern techniques creating garments that are ready to wear while maintaining an air of couture utilizing stock fabric, recycled polyester and faux fur.

The Albinali sisters are part of the bigger conversation surrounding the desperate need to nurture and help grow the creative communities from the Middle East and Africa. Lurline represents the modern viewpoint this regions have to offer as well as timeless and exceptional pieces. 

Having founded their eponymous brand just 4 years ago, they’ve managed to create a strong personality presence that is not for the minimalist lovers. Their dramatic designs filled with color and life offers a unique and fun escape through fashion.
