Albus Lumen celebrates 5 years
Australian brand Albus Lumen is celebrating its fifth anniversary.
Founded by celebrity stylist Marina Afonina in 2015, Albus Lumen which means white light in Latin was inspired by her love of travel. Having noticed a gap in the market for holiday and resort wear, Afonina set out to make easy work of getting dressed with modernist clothes made from the finest natural fabrics and crafted with a conscience.
Born in Russia, Afonina emigrated to Australia at 17 and studied commerce at the University of Sydney and embarked on a career in fashion. Making the transition from stylist to designer, her first resort collection was dedicated to three fabrications. Since its launch, the label has achieved cult status known for understated elegance and innate minimalism.
In celebration of the brands’ five year milestone, friend and muse of the label, Elle Macpherson fronts a shoot in a series of intimate black and white portraits wearing monochromatic suiting and collection pieces alongside Afonina. Lensed by photographer Saskia Wilson, the stills are a celebration of free and effortless style and limiltless dreaming.
‘She is an Icon. Albus Lumen is humbled and grateful to have Macpherson representing its milestone event. She is the perfect representation of what Albus Lumen stands for within the fashion Industry,’ said Afonina.
