THE JUXTAPOSITION OF COLORS & PATTERNS





bantu wax, one of my new favorite brands comes from the creative mind of yodit eklund, who is of ethiopian descent.  what i like about her is that she has seen so much of africa and the rest of the world that she is uniquely qualified to bring such a visually stunning and cohesive collection of truly african pieces.  her collection is sourced and made 100% in africa.  in preparing for your summer beachwear collection, rather than settling for "ethnic" print ripoffs at the mall, get down with the real and in the process support growing africa's economy.  the suits are available at barneys new york x l.a. and anthropologie.
