Founded in 2009, Bengjof Couture is the brainchild of style icons-in-the-making, J’Antae D. Hall and Emmanuel B. Eloundou. Since their childhoods, J’Antae and Emmanuel have each been recognized as the go-to sources for fashion-forward looks. The two met as practicing attorneys and quickly discovered each others’ love for sophisticated fashion with an edge.

J’Antae and Emmanuel were inspired to launch Bengjof Couture following the consistently overwhelming response to Emmanuel’s well-tailored suits and unique styling. Bengjof Couture’s private collection of European-tailored suits and dress shirts in contemporary fabrics, colors, styles and silhouettes reflect Emmanuel’s many years of self-taught design and personal style and J’Antae’s formal coursework in textiles and color theory. Bengjof Couture is recognized for designs that convey bold style statements for a distinguished clientele that ranges from the edgy tastemaker to the sophisticated executive. Bengjof Couture’s design and styling philosophy is apparent in every look that they create: combine contemporary colors and luxurious fabrics with sophisticated classic silhouettes to create looks that are undeniably signature.
