Revealed on May 3rd at the Avant-Garde Fashion Show, this collection is more than a fashion debut; it is a bridge toward the Sahel. A symbol of resistance, memory, and cultural reclamation, Chapter 1 is the result of years of research between the continent and the diaspora. From the Melhfa sourced in Dakar to reinterpreted Tuareg jewelry, every silhouette is an ode to those who came before us.
