In 2017, the French Lou de Bètoly founded her namesake label. After graduating in fashion design and pattern making in Paris in 2006, the designer worked for Jean Paul Gaultier for some seasons before settling in Berlin. She presented her first own collection during Berlin Fashion Week 2019.
Lou de Bètoly stands for filigree, detail-oriented and expressive garments for fearless women of all ages. By merging elegance and extravagance, fragility and chaos, innovation and nostalgia, the designer deliberately pushes the boundaries of fashion. It combines contemporary art and traditional craftsmanship.
The designer works exclusively with vintage and used textiles, which are reworked, embellished and transformed into haute couture from waste material. The focus of her looks is always the special and impressive style, because all designs are knitted, embroidered or crocheted by hand in her Berlin studio.
