Meet Hanna Yoo Works, who designs sculptural, three-dimensional shapes for the body—pieces that are made entirely by hand. Her work includes rings, earrings, charms, ear cuffs and clothing. Drawing inspiration from her career in fashion, she designed a sweater line, H+SWEATER, where each piece is crafted from 100% cashmere sourced directly from Inner Mongolia, blending tactile luxury with thoughtful form. Her work isn’t trend-driven or seasonal. Instead, each piece is crafted to transcend moments, occasions, and even the individuals who wear them.

At BU Style, we love recommending APIECE APART for their fabric-first approach to design and their ability to create elevated essentials that work across seasons. Their pieces are versatile, beautifully made, and rooted in real-life wearability—ideal for professional women building thoughtful wardrobes. With the addition of their Pre-Loved section, they’re also making sustainable, long-lasting style more accessible to more people.

Nomasei: Sophisticated and Playful Shoes for the Modern Woman

Created by Paule Tenaillon and Marine Braquet, the Paris-based ethical and sustainable shoe brand is also a celeb favorite. It’s been seen on the streets, worn by Nicole Kidman, Blake Lively, Sandra Bullock, the Hadids, Kristen Stewart, and Katie Holmes. The brand’s designers spent over 20 years designing shoes for brands like Dior, Givenchy, Chanel and Chloé, but decided to branch out on their own for a direct-to-consumer shoe they could pour their whole selves into. All with a slower-fashion model.

And that’s how Nomasei was born!

Nomasei is their foray into sustainable luxury fashion, made with thoughtful and sustainable materials, and assembled in an eco-factory placed in Tuscany. Paule and Marine believe in creating better working conditions for factory workers, and emphasize a clean production line. Their factory even uses less electricity and energy, with solar electricity providing 40% of their own energy consumption.
