The fact that I have a passion for brands that manage to mix tradition and modernity is now known to everyone. Just look at my post on Stella Jean or All Things Mochi to name a few .

So you can imagine my happiness when I had the possibility to write a post on another one of these brands.

Suno.

The idea was born by Max Osterweis, who, in 2008, after witnessing post-election violence in Kenya, decided to use his collection of Kenyan Kangas to create a high-end collection with a conscience.

Thanks to the collaboration with the designer Erin Beatty the brand Suno was born .

And, season after season, collection after collection, Suno has been able to create unique prints, textures and embroideries with the help of local talent of Kenya, India, Peru and New York.

Here some shoots from the last collection.
