Lele Sadoughi headbands are made with our custom fit band and are rated the most comfortable by our loyal customers. Designed in NYC and made with quality fabrics and unique hand-sewn trims, we offer the widest assortment of silhouettes and colors in the market.
Styling: Layer it over a crisp white button-down, letting the lapis sit like a crown at the crown of a low chignon; pair with thin gold huggies and a single strand of gold beads to echo the carnelian crystals without competing. Wear it pushed back over loose, blown-out waves with an oversized cream cashmere sweater, high-rise wide-leg jeans, and small gold studs—let the headband be the single statement. Style it with a black slip dress, a long pendant gold necklace, and tiny diamond studs; the lapis becomes the focal point while the delicate jewelry keeps the neckline soft.
Occasions: Sunday stroll through The Met's Egyptian Wing before brunch, Rooftop cocktail hour on a warm summer evening, Gallery opening or contemporary art vernissage
