She was born in Cameroon and spent most of her childhood there.

 

After her university studies in Banking and Finance at the Siantou Supérieur Institute, she decided to move to France for new opportunities.

 

After some training, she decided to study accounting in Paris.

 

But for a long time she has a dream ...

 

Passionate about fashion and fashion, she created an Afro-European brand LauraBlackStyle in 2018.

 

A brand that values the "African fabric" through a chic and refined brewing.

 

A brand inspired by his personality that is both rich, jovial and mysterious.

 

Living in a multicultural environment in France, it aims to put foward a message of union and universality. Her love for the exotic is a fact that inspires her vision of fashion.

 

 

The Laurablacstyle brand that it develops today in France and Luxembourg is an expression of openness to the world and the enhancement of Afro-European wealth ; a true African fashion "revisited" to soak up a cosmopolitan world.

 

 

Very sensitive to the cause of disadvantaged children or victims of sexual abuse, she donates 1% of her turnover to this cause.
