House of Kaya

My design inspiration for the YAR TSAURI Collection was drawn from the ancient and present day Northern african woman (Hausa woman). My aim was to build up a structured silhouette, strong yet refined. I was inspired by her memories which represents spirit and strength of womanhood. Fitted cuts and draped volumes, infinite finishings and embleshiment. Materials were chosen according to her historical reference; cotton, borcades and silk. The colour palette covers a range of shades.

ONCE WE WERE LIONS…#myphotooftheday
Among the Maasai,lion killing was a rite of passage into manhood,the only way to become a warrior.However,conservation has taken the place of tradition and the young members of the tribe compete in the Maasai Olympics,an event designed to end the killing of lions by giving young men an alternative way to earn status in the society.

There’s no literal hint, but we think this could this be a part of the designers inspirations… Just maybe.
