Doreen Mashika

Doreen Mashika firmly believes that the bedrock of traditional cultures in Africa is still a powerful force, and one that she – and all of us – should celebrate. Inspired by a deep affection for the immense cultural heritage that her native Africa offers, she combines this with a Western design philosophy learned from considerable experience of the Western fashion and luxury goods sector. Her shoes, bags & jewellery combine materials in a unique way: kitenge fabrics & beads with top-quality hides and well-finished metal fittings, horn with precious metals, antique beads with brass, resulting in pieces of inspired and individual beauty.
