Our vision
Our products bring together the finest materials and stunning African inspired design to create something very special. We believe in quality, care, and creating unique vibrant and bold products that everyone can enjoy. Colorful, creative, and inspired by what we see everyday and by our heritage, each product represents what we love about the multicultural world we live in. We hope they’ll inspire you too.
Our Philosophy
In a fast-paced world, we value unique designs with durable materials. We focus on fairness, health and ecology and defy the fast fashion industry. Thanks to comfortable cuts and natural materials, you can feel good without limits.
Our Inspirations
Our biggest inspiration is our African heritage and our love for self-expression through colourful, unique and refreshing clothing. That is the reason why our collections are made of vibrant, eye-catching African inspired print fabrics. The print signifies something more than a fashion statement. African prints are our first point of contact with our culture as Africans because when we are born we were wrapped in African wax print. It is a major part of every African’s heritage and every wax print tells a unique story. The wearer uses the symbolism of the print as a form of visual communication, which is why African prints perfectly fit in our brand. They are bright, bold, elegant and suit a variety of taste and sizes. Further, they are easy to incorporate into everyday style as well as any other occasion such as for a night out or formal events. You don’t need anything else to stand out of the crowd.
What makes us outstanding?
Since 2013, we grew, we matured and we realised that if something is missing from the world, it’s more individuality and personality. Prints and colours are the best way to express that. This is why we spend our time designing our own and unique colourful African print fabric that underlines your strong personality, your uniqueness and let you feel confident when wearing it. We are transforming and adjusting our traditional African prints to new habits & new trends allowing us to connect with our customers worldwide, no matter which culture or roots they have. As we strongly believe in the raise of the African fashion industry and want to raise the awareness of African fashion, all products are fully produced in local facilities in Kinshasa (D.R. Congo). This enables us to support the growing African fashion industry by creating jobs and improving the living standards of our tailors. Customer service is key for us, that’s we assure the best quality by stress testing all fabrics, having all designs available in different international standard sizes and sufficient stock to ship the products promptly when ordered. Each product is designed and crafted with extreme precision to make you feel the best version of yourself.
