FOUNDED, DIRECTED AND DESIGNED BY ALIA ZAKI ALI – THIS IS L’ALINGI’S STORY.
Alia has always been enthusiastic about creating an accessories brand that challenges the status quo by transforming a conventional staple item into a dazzling and unique statement piece.
Alia grew up in both the U.S. and Beirut, Lebanon, studying Graphic Design and working for advertising company Leo Burnett as well as other graphic design firms. After getting married, moving to London and factory hunting in Europe and the Middle East, Alia was finally able to bring her ideas to life and launched L’alingi in 2017 where the birth of L'alingi and her two children all began.
In April 2021 Alia was listed on Forbes "30 Under 30" as one of Europe’s talents to watch.
The brand’s design is quirky yet femininely refined, passionately created and crafted to the highest calibre. L’alingi seamlessly blends mundane objects with luxurious items to transform the common clutch into a vibrant work of art.
In 2019, Alia designed the iconic Eternity Clutch, inspired by her own engagement ring.Since then jewellery has been one of the biggest inspirations behind the designs that led to the creation of other bestselling styles such as the Taliya Clutch, Taliya Feather Pouch and Love Clutch.
