Insider Notes

For her Sacred Woods collection, designer Kadiata Diallo pays homage to her grandmother, who sold artisanal printed fabrics in Casamance, Senegal, during the 40s. This suit has been carefully tailored from pure cotton and printed by hand with wooden brushes—a time-honored technique practiced by the Fulani and Soninke people. Finished with playful frill trims at the cuffs and hem, wear yours to dinner with pumps and a clutch.

Mauritania
Niuku
Mauritanian designer Kadiata Diallo’s work is an expression of paradoxical ideas. A Niuku collection spans gender expression with ease, presenting feminine dresses alongside masculine suit-inspired separates with a coherent confidence. Converging the utility of streetwear with the statement appeal of a strong print, the label is primed to slot into a contemporary wardrobe and can be styled to accommodate various dress codes. Diallo taps into the traditional techniques, most recently for fabric dying, of her local communities of artisans, preserving them for the modern generation.
