About Us
Welcome to Nubian Reines
Nubian Reines is a UK-based accessories and clothing brand on a mission to empower and celebrate Black and mixed girls through the power of representation. Our products from backpacks and lunchboxes to pencil cases and satin-lined hoodies are adorned with our Nubian Reines logo, which consists of three Nubian queens, each with their own natural hair texture, skin tone and African name that means 'queen'.
How It All Began
The idea for Nubian Reines was born in 2018, sparked by a moment that so many Black families know all too well, the quiet ache of watching a child struggle to see themselves reflected in the world around them. Founder Cilrette noticed how a lack of relatable characters could affect a child's confidence and decided to do something about it.
That moment of clarity led to the creation of Nubian Reines a brand built on the belief that all children deserve to feel seen, celebrated and reminded of their worth.
What We Stand For
Representation matters. It shapes how others see you but most importantly, how you see yourself. Black and mixed girls have long been underrepresented in fashion and media. Nubian Reines exists to change that.
We often hear from parents that as soon as their child spots one of our queens, they say: She looks just like me! and that is exactly why we do what we do.
Our Products
We design accessories and clothing for young girls aged 7-12, with an expanding range that also appeals to teens and adults. Our product line includes backpacks, lunchboxes, pencil cases, faux leather bags and satin-lined hoodies, all high quality and reasonably priced, because every queen deserves the best.
A Word from Our Founder
Create a brand, a product or service that you can boldly stand by and that you yourself would use or buy. Be consistent, always willing to learn and grow. But most importantly, be patient with yourself and your business.
- Cilrette, Founder of Nubian Reines
We cannot speak about diversity if we are not all represented. Welcome to the Reign. 👑
