The story
La Benim started as a dream I had when I was just 19. As a proud Muslim Bangladeshi, I grew up surrounded by the richness of our cultural heritage, intricate patterns, vibrant colours, and meaningful traditions. My love for fashion, paired with a desire to create something truly unique in the Asian fashion industry, it led me to start designing shoes that combine tradition with modern elegance.
During my college years, especially during the pandemic, I found the time and focus to turn my ideas into reality. It wasn’t easy balancing studies, working part time jobs and a growing dream, but the support of my parents and siblings kept me going. Their encouragement and belief in me were the roots that helped me bring La Benim to life.​
​In March 2024, I had the honour of showcasing my debut show in Dubai with The Fashion Connect, an experience that felt like an absolute dream. To have my first ever show on an international stage was such a huge milestone for me and my brand. The show was absolutely amazing, and it was surreal to see my designs come to life and gain recognition. Working alongside such talented ambassador and a visionary director made the experience even more unforgettable. Their creativity and passion brought so much energy to the event, and it was inspiring to be surrounded by such brilliance. This moment marked a turning point in my journey, and I’ll always cherish it as the beginning of something truly special for La Benim.
​
Another incredible milestone was taking La Benim to India. Being part of The Fashion Connect in a country with such a rich fashion heritage was an honour I’ll always cherish. I had the privilege of being the official footwear partner for the event, which was an extraordinary opportunity to showcase my designs on a global stage. Meeting some of the most talented designers and creative minds in the industry, and witnessing their inspiring work firsthand, was both inspiring and motivating. Sharing my collection with a new audience and seeing it resonate in a country that deeply values tradition and artistry was a proud moment for me and my brand. It was a defining experience that not only reinforced my passion but also opened doors to exciting new possibilities for La Benim.
For me, La Benim is more than a brand it’s a reflection of my journey and a way to celebrate culture and individuality. Every design I create tells a story, blending the richness of tradition with the elegance of modernity. It’s about making brides feel unique and connected to something timeless on their special day.
Balancing university, part time work, and building La Benim hasn’t been easy, but it’s been worth every challenge. I’m so grateful for how far I’ve come and excited about what’s still to come.
