Jeweller and designer Xavier Loubens together with d’Eduardo Braza created the Lumen Fashion House in Paris in 1990. At the very beginning of his career, Loubens had an internship at Givenchy Fashion House. Now he collaborates with several leading young French stylists and the largest European fashion houses. In particular, Guy Laroche, Patou, Balenciaga, Rochas, Givenchy, Vionnet, Christian Lacroix, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent and Dior.

All of them consider the style of Xavier Loubens jewellery unique from the accessories and fittings, its designs, the processing methods of metals, right down to the crystals and decorative modules. As a result, all these famous fashion houses order from Xavier Loubens prêt-à-porter and haute couture jewellery, buttons, and decorative modules for embroidering fabrics and shoes for their collections. According to Xavier Loubens, he doesn’t like clear things. He likes to mix precious metals and stones and so called “bad taste” materials: plates of thin brass, rhinestones, plastic and resin. “It is fair, fresh and always unique”.
