A more conscious kind of luxury
I started LOUÉ STUDIO because I couldn't find a handbag I felt completely good about buying. 3 years ago I was on the hunt for the perfect black bag. I was drawn to leather bags for their more sophisticated designs and craftsmanship, but I didn’t want to buy leather. When I explored vegan options, I realised they were mostly made of plastic, and no brand offered the transparency and traceability I sought.
Fashion is such a powerful form of self-expression, yet it rarely reflects our values. Determined to find a better way, I began researching materials, manufacturing, and design. The more I learned, the more I felt compelled to act. So, I created the brand I wanted to see in the world.
LOUÉ STUDIO exists to reimagine handbags – to create pieces we can feel proud to carry, and to inspire a more conscious kind of luxury.
It’s not always an easy path, but that’s what makes it meaningful. I’m so glad you’re here 🤍
Our mission
For too long, fashion’s idea of luxury has relied on materials like leather, fur, and feathers – symbols of status built on extraction and exploitation. At LOUÉ, we believe it’s time for something better.
We design handbags and accessories using next-generation, plant-based materials like MIRUM® and ELEVATE – chosen not just for their lower impact, but for their beauty and performance. Every piece is handcrafted start-to-finish by two artisans in Ubrique, Spain, a town renowned for its leatherworking heritage.
This rare level of craftsmanship, paired with progressive material science, is what sets LOUÉ apart.
