Suno


Suno is a beautiful New York fashion label.

The designers spent some years collecting textiles in Kenya, and created the label in response to the political problems that the country has recently experienced. They believe that building a successful public company will help the country, as well as employing Kenyan workers and giving them a fair wage.

The designing takes place in New York and the current collection is inspired by Gustav Klimt, Traditional East African textiles, Turkey, Paris and India. Samples are then taken over to Kenya where they are produced by local artisans.
