KHOL is born from Arab heritage and shaped by the present, inspired by the ritual of kohl—worn for beauty, strength, and protection. The brand balances the contrast between softness and structure, past and future, elegance and ease. At its core is a deep respect for tailoring and craft. Each piece reflects quiet strength, where tradition and modern life meet in a way that feels both personal and timeless.
