Founded in 2016 by three lifelong friends, Human & Beings is the first-of-its-kind concept store in Dubai. United with the desire to bring sustainable, quality fashion into the national market of Dubai they curate collections of only the best clothing, footwear, accessories and beauty products. They handpick like-minded contemporary designers and independent labels from all around the world to combine them in a single retail space, just for you. This boutique lives by their promise to only fill their racks with pieces that feel and look great, pieces that can be used and reused, unaffected by the fast-paced world of fads. What a perfect promise to make.

Keren Longkumer and Valerie Quant realized their mutual love for unconventional forms and proportions after meeting in Los Angeles while studying footwear design. Hailing from Nagaland and Los Angeles respectively, the friends became partners in 2015 and founded a line of shoes for the modern woman called LOQ. Look for rich hues and textures inspired by India alongside a laidback aesthetic as they aim to redefine the classics.
