Zahluth Women’s fashion label
Thaina Simoes dos Santos, Certificate III, IV & Diploma of Business, has ran her own women’s fashion label successfully back in Brazil and is now bringing it to Australia!
Zahluth creates unique styles to suit women of all sizes, ages and personalities. Thaine designs, creates and sells her clothes herself and does it with passion!
“Fashion chose me! Since I was a little girl, I always designed my own clothes, and my favourite place was with the seamstresses, seeing the creations and giving life to new clothes and styles! Zahluth was born to dress girls and women for the best years of their lives, from 18, 25, 30 to 70 years old, and accompany them to enjoy the beautiful journey of life every day, feeling confident accompanying women from great personality and women who are still finding their personality, we like to express who we are through art on clothing! Zahluth’s concept is that you can be whoever you want, and be YOU! “Whats your outfit mood today?” Because life is too short to wear boring clothes, so come with us! “
Check out Zahluth’s page below to see their creations, or just to show some support;
