Lara Khoury was born in Beirut, in January 1985. Eighteen years later, she decided to join the Ecole Supérieure de la Mode de Paris (ESMOD) with her unique passion of drawing the world and dressing its residents while creating universes of textile. Her desire grew with every pull of - thread and needle - It concretized in September 2006 when she joined Elie Saab in Beirut and the world of Haute Couture, Prêt-à-porter, fashion and all the dynamics of the industry. It was not long before this desire for fashion took a life of its own. Lara Khoury decided to start expressing her own creations and exploring her sensitivity, thereby creating the brand ILK between 2008 and 2009. At the same time, her very first pieces were put forth to the general public in Starch (Saifi Village), Rabih Kayrouz’s laboratory for new ideas and a showroom for young Lebanese designers. 3 2 4 1 1.
