Made in Turkey using ethically-sourced leathers and furs, La Bete’s 2017 collection includes a collaboration with New York’s Wickedly Yours by Stephanie Pence, who provides custom embroidered details. Highlighted by leather and satin coats and jackets featuring dramatic fur sleeves, La Bete (the beast in French) conveys a uniquely fierce elegance.
Relatively new on the scene, the label was launched in 2015 by Jessica Kruse of Addison Crescent showroom in New York. Pieces from fall 2016 are available for purchase at Harvey Nichols and Saks.
