Mlouye’s Handbags Bland Fashion, Art, & Architecture Into One

If you love fashion, art, and architecture equally, Mlouye’s handbags will be your cup of tea. This brand is taking the world by storm with its visionary bags that look like works of art, while managing to remain chic and functional, as well.

Mlouye was founded by Meb Rure, whose bags became a true sensation thanks to their quirky shapes with a utilitarian twist. Before deciding to launch this brand in 2015, Rure had a background in industrial design, and she used it to look at fashion from a new perspective.

Mlouye was born, drawing inspiration from several architectural and artistic styles that shaped Mlouye as a fashion designer with a unique vision.

“Meb was highly inspired by the Bauhaus Movement’s artists and architects. From Mies van der Rohe’s works to Kandinsky’s paintings to Aalto’s furniture, she acquired a rationalist vision of design by gleaning how they served a utilitarian purpose in a cleverly simple way,” reads the brand’s official website.

In addition to putting quality materials and elevated craftsmanship front and center, Mlouye is dedicated to making sustainable bags that last. They pride themselves in monitoring the environmental impact of their production process to avoid over-production and reduce waste.
