About LarAllan
LarAllan is an accessories brand based in the UK, founded by Nigerian born designer Lara Olutunbi.
Lara's love for design stems from childhood, where she doodled at the back of class in boarding school - designing outfits and looks for the holidays.
Although, she initially pursued a career in Finance, Lara continued to pursue her interest in Design - taking courses at Central Saint Martins in Fashion, Fabrics and Interior Design.
LarAllan is a blend of her and her late Father Allan’s names. The brand builds on three main ingredients: Attention to Detail, Quality & Design Elegance. Her collections celebrate WOMEN.
Lara’s inspiration comes in multiple ways: furniture, day to day items & various objects including the fabric/leather used in the collection. She likes to give a different point of view to an existing shape; loves to play with colour combos, patterns & textures in an unexpected way. She also thrives on weaving functionality into her designs.
The typical LarAllan woman has an eye for detail and loves a statement piece, she looks for quality, originality and elegance in design interpretation.
