COLLECTION TITLE / The Golden Babies

Step into the world of “The Golden Babies,” a collection that stands as a testament to healing and unity. Born from the shadows of a painful history, this collection is a tribute to the strength and resilience of all whose ancestors bore the weight of the slave trade’s legacy. It’s a moment of reconnection, a pledge to break the cycle of trauma that trickles through generations.

Infused with vibrant hues and symbolic ties, this collection paints a tapestry of hope and empowerment. At its heart lies the Lover Knot, a powerful symbol from Suriname that weaves Love, Protection, Respect, and Heritage into its threads.

These garments aren’t just fabric; they’re conduits of stories, whispers of triumph over adversity. Crafted to suit any occasion, they command attention and exude confidence. The collection dances between tradition and modernity, with shapes and materials that bridge the gap between eras. The focus? Wearability that empowers.
