This collection embodies the Torlowei ethos with breathtaking clarity. Classic silhouettes explode with vibrant new hues. Sumptuous silks, woven on generational family looms, provide the canvas for meticulously hand-painted details. Delicate French lace, sourced from the renowned Caudry region, is worked into the designs by skilled artisans in Nigeria and Morocco. Each piece is a unique artwork, crafted with painstaking care.
