OUR STORY
ABOUT US
SONGUL CABACI GÜNER, born and raised in Turkey amidst the rhythms of nature, developed a passion for fashion and creative expression. After 15 years in the fashion industry, she recognized the clash between her creative calling and nature, prompting a shift. In 2019, she, along with her life partner Hakan, founded Studio Laloba with a mission to create useful and sustainable clothes inspired by a love for yoga. Laloba is dedicated to sourcing and designing with sustainable, natural fabrics woven by local artisans, aiming to minimize and eventually reverse the fashion industry's impact on the planet. With a focus on simple and elegant designs reflecting a yoga and minimalist approach, Studio Laloba aspires to be more than a fashion brand. It seeks to lead a movement that embraces a sustainable lifestyle and values, using the transformative power of fashion to guide individuals and the industry towards a more ethical and sustainable future.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
WITH NATURE, FOR THE FUTURE
At Studio Laloba, we are more than creators; we are collaborators with the forces of nature. Our designs are born from the belief that true sustainability is not just a practice but an art form, a delicate dance with the elements that surround us. In every stitch and weave, we draw inspiration from the rhythms of the Earth, creating a harmonious symphony between creativity and environmental consciousness. For us, the act of designing is a partnership with the planet, a commitment to weaving a narrative that transcends trends and stands the test of time. We believe that true beauty lies in the seamless integration of creativity and sustainability, and it is through this synergy that we pave the path to a better collective future.

OUR MATERIALS
Nature is our muse, influencing every design choice as we focus on components that preserve the delicate balance of the ecosystem. Our commitment is reflected in the use of pure materials produced through sustainable methods, sourced locally from Denizli, Bursa, and Uşak regions in Turkey. Studio Laloba proudly supports local production and showcases Anatolian craft techniques in our collections.
