Signature gowns
Lualawit Hailu Woldemariam
I'm Lualawit Hailu Woldemariam — a twenty-six-year-old designer working out of Addis Ababa. I started this atelier so I could show the world how beautiful the Ethiopian dress really is, and so that the centuries-old textile culture I grew up around could travel far beyond home.
