For decades, Xuly.Bët designer Lamine Kouyaté has been a champion of sustainability—and Paris’s stealth superstar.
Lamine Badian Kouyaté is better known for his love of color—and his use of wax prints and stretch fabrics—than for his long-standing commitment to what he calls “making great things with less.” For 30 years, though, this pioneer of sustainable fashion has been doing just that under the label Xuly.Bët . Now, with buyers, editors, and customers increasingly on the lookout for both joyous and conscious clothing, it seems that the world is finally paying attention to Kouyaté’s work.
Making body-con looks for women of all shapes and sizes is nothing new for Kouyaté, who has always had an inclusive view of beauty.
Despite Kouyaté’s love for metallics—the shiny pieces in his fall collection were inspired by the foil that wrapped his mother’s favorite Quality Street chocolates—his work is grounded in bohemian idealism. “The faith that feeds us is like love; that’s for sure,” the designer says.
