FRANCAISE:

Kiki Kamanu, née d'une mère Bostonienne et d'un père Igbo, est le visage de son étiquette éponyme qui a vu le jour lorsqu'elle a commencé à revitaliser les vêtements de sa sœur jumelle à onze ans. Alors qu'elle travaillait pour l'agence de mannequins Ford à Boston, elle a eu l'honneur de marcher avec plusieurs designers, dont Chanel et Gucci.

Kiki a reçu son éducation aux États-Unis, en France et au Nigéria et est à la maison dans n'importe quelle culture ayant voyagé à plus de 50 destinations internationales sur les cinq continents (et comptant). Cela se reflète dans la diversité de ses créations et il n'est pas surprenant qu'elle puise son inspiration dans une myriade de sources, ce qui est évident dans son mélange habile de styles, de textures et de tissus du monde entier. Les cotons robustes se fondent dans d'élégantes soies thaïlandaises, tandis que le jersey imprimé dynamique est moulé pour parfaire la silhouette féminine. Les mousselines sont mélangés de façon créative avec des cuirs italiens dans l'art portable dont les détails complexes sont fabriqués à la main par des artisans doués.

La devise de la marque, "Blazing the fashion trail since 822 a.d." est inspiré par la vie d'un Maure, appelé Zyryab, qui a vécu au 8ème siècle à Bagdad et en Andalousie. Vraiment en avance sur son temps, il est crédité de l'introduction des sandales à bout ouvert, changement de garde-robe par saison, franges dans les cheveux, le luth moderne et une foule d'autres premières.

Au profit des iconoclastes de la mode partout, Kiki a quitté son poste de coordonnatrice du programme d'éducation en neurochirurgie à la Harvard Medical School pour se consacrer à la création de créations exclusives bien conçues tout en continuant de donner à la communauté en respectant les principes du commerce équitable. Les fusions de mode animées de Kamanu sont disponibles en éditions limitées pour les hommes et les femmes exigeants recherchant un style personnel supérieur dans les tenues décontractées et formelles.

La marque de chic distinctif de Kiki Kamanu a été présentée sur plusieurs pistes, dont la London Fashion Week, la Sleek, la Lagos Fashion & Design Week et la Fashion Week Magazine ARISE. En outre, elle et / ou ses dessins ont été publiés dans les principaux médias américains, européens, nigérians et turcs, notamment CNN International et Russian Tattler.

Kiki Kamanu a développé un suivi fidèle à travers le monde.

ENGLISH:

Kiki Kamanu, born to a Bostonian mother and Igbo father, is the face of her eponymous label which was birthed when she began revitalizing her twin sister's clothes at age eleven. While with the Ford modeling agency in Boston, she had the honour of walking for several designers including Chanel and Gucci.

Kiki received her education in the United States, France and Nigeria and is at home in any culture having travelled to over 50 international destinations in five continents (and counting). This is reflected in the diversity of her creations and is no surprise that she draws inspiration from myriad sources which is evident in her skillful blending of styles, textures and fabrics from around the globe. Sturdy cottons melt into elegant Thai silks while vibrant printed jersey molded to perfect the feminine silhouette. Chiffons are creatively blended with Italian leathers into wearable art whose intricate details are hand crafted by gifted artisans.

The brand's motto, "Blazing the fashion trail since 822 a.d." is inspired by the life of a Moor, called Zyryab, who lived in 8th century Baghdad and Andalucía. Truly ahead of his time, he is credited with the introduction of the open-toed sandals, change in wardrobe per season, fringes (bangs) in the hair, the modern day lute, and a host of other firsts.

To the benefit of fashion iconoclasts everywhere, Kiki left her role at Harvard Medical School as the Neurosurgery Education Program Coordinator, to devote her energy to producing well-crafted exclusive creations while continuing to give back to the community by espousing the principles of fair trade. Kamanu's lively fashion fusions are available in limited editions for discerning men and women seeking superior personal style in casuals and formal wear.

The Kiki Kamanu's brand of distinctive chic has been featured on several runways including London Fashion Week, Sleek, Lagos Fashion & Design Week and the ARISE Magazine Fashion Week. In addition, she and / or her designs have appeared in major American, European, Nigerian, and Turkish media including CNN International and Russian Tattler.

Kiki Kamanu has developed a faithful following across the world.

Really beautiful and as expected. I really recommend this kaftan. Kiki-Kamanu approaches me to have size and measure confirmation. All went well and dress received 10 days after order. Thank you!

Horrible. The zipper was uneven and the top puckered at the top in a very unfavorable way. Returning immediately.
