About us

Vanessa Ofori is an online luxury menswear and lifestyle brand based in London, United Kingdom. Our signature style features: attention to detail, textiles, rich heritage and contemporary African prints. We source from West Africa selectively hand picked cotton linings and other materials such as glass beads. The designs involve intricate detailed; embroidery, bead work and personalised design features. The prints are in house designed, incorporated with detailed art work of paintings and drawings which are vibrant and rich in colour.

Our goal is to make customers look like modern royalty and feel like a king! In all our collections the final look is always inspired by an African king. The first collection called The Afrocentric Style Collection S/S 2015 was launched in June 2014 at London’s Graduate Fashion Week. The designer was inspired by a Nigerian king from the Hausa tribe called Alahji Ado Bayero, the model was styled like him with the head wrap, umbrella and shades. This collection received good feed back from the press and the public.

We ship internationally and the goal is to offer personalised sizes and explore other cultures outside of Africa, we are now crowdfunding on Kickstarter and we produced unisex T-shirts for our Kickstarter Campaign. The campaign includes exclusive rewards and we collaborated with jewellery designers for this campaign.
