Lele Sadoughi Style Guide
ALPHA EPSILON PHI KNOTTED HEADBAND
A signature knotted headband in support green, hand-embellished with ΑΕΦ Greek letters in sage and white, clear crystals, faux pearls, and temple-and-column charms. Crafted in NYC with Lele Sadoughi's most-loved comfort fit band, it's a meaningful, modern nod to sisterhood that doubles as a polished everyday statement.
10 Ways to Wear It
- Layer the knotted headband with oversized tortoiseshell sunglasses, a chunky gold chain necklace, and a structured blazer for an off-duty-editor look.
- Pair it with a button earring and a pearl choker, then keep the rest neutral in a ribbed knit and high-waisted denim for an elevated campus uniform.
- Style with small gold studs, a layered set of dainty necklaces, and a cream silk blouse to let the green pop at a coffee meeting.
- Wear with statement chandelier earrings and a sleek low ponytail, then skip the necklace so the headband remains the focal point.
- Combine with tiny pearl studs, a silk scarf tied at the neck, and a trench coat for a refined transitional outfit.
- Style with chunky gold hoops, a belted midi dress, and slingbacks so the headband's charms catch the light as you walk.
- Pair with dainty huggies, a stack of delicate bracelets, and a crisp white tee tucked into tailored trousers for a clean, modern line-up.
- Layer it with a thin velvet hair ribbon, small studs, and a single pendant necklace for a romantic gallery look.
- Wear with oversized drop earrings, a chunky belt over a blazer dress, and minimalist studs at the second ear hole for a balanced statement silhouette.
- Combine with a coordinating green silk scarf at the wrist, gold huggies, and a cashmere sweater for tonal, sorority-spirited styling.
Occasions
- Sisterhood brunch celebrating bid day or a philanthropy event.
- Gallery opening or museum preview where subtle sparkle reads as intentional.
- Sunday stroll through a garden district or farmers market with friends.
- Cocktail hour at a chapter-hosted alumnae mixer.
- First-day-of-class outfit that looks pulled together by 8 AM.
How to Style It With Your Hair
Hair DownWear hair down with a soft middle part so the knot sits centered and the charms frame the face.
PonytailPull into a sleek low ponytail with a wrapped base to spotlight the ΑΕΦ letters and pearl detailing.
Half-UpTwist the front sections back and secure with a hidden pin so the band reads as a crown across the crown of the head.
BunStyle a clean low bun with face-framing tendrils to keep the knot's embellishment fully visible.

Styling Tips
- Spot clean only and store in the custom collaboration pouch to protect the hand-sewn charms and embroidery.
- Crown the band at the upper forehead for a modern, off-the-face silhouette that shows off the ΑΕΦ lettering.
- Balance the embellished headband with small-to-mid-scale earrings to keep proportions in the right zone.
- Pair with crisp neutrals like cream, ivory, or camel so the support green reads as the hero color.
