About Us
"After decades working within luxury fashion, I developed a deep sensitivity to materials — and to the stories objects carry. Over time, I began collecting rare vintage elements: fragments marked by craftsmanship, use, and memory. KUSTT emerged from this practice.
Not to reproduce — but to transform."

L.Kuster - Founder and CEO of KUSTT
Laurence’s experience spans major luxury houses across Europe and the United States, including Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo, Agnona, Schiaparelli, and Karl Lagerfeld… This background informs KUSTT — not as a continuation of production, but as a departure from it.
KUSTT does not operate as a traditional brand. It is a practice built on transformation rather than production. In an industry driven by volume and newness, it works only with what already exists.

Through what she defines as the Art of Newcycling, existing materials
are not replaced or replicated.
They are reinterpreted, refined, and transformed into singular forms.
Each piece exists once.
Nothing is repeated.
AT KUSTT, we aren't manufacturers of new goods.
Our role is to explore, locate and unearth.
Synthesizing contemporary
methods with traditional craftmanship,
we deconstruct, contribute and evolve.
Every item is procured conscientiously, guaranteeing
that no fresh resources are generated
or squandered during the operation.
Our objective is to honour the allure intrinsic in
pre-existing raw materials by rejuvenating them,
espousing both sustainability and innovation
within every singular handbag.

Each Piece Carries Its Own Record
Every KUSTT piece is accompanied by a sealed document — stitched beneath a transparent layer, and accessible only to its owner.
It traces the origin of the materials, the elements preserved or transformed, and the stages of its making.
At the moment of acquisition, the seal is opened.
The process is revealed.
What was hidden becomes personal.
Every creation carries a trace of its making.
Fragments are chosen, transformed, and brought together through a process that remains visible — though not entirely revealed.
Each piece is a dialogue between past and present.
Quietly shaped.
Deliberately made.
Never repeated.
Fragments of the past, made present.
