A Twi word for ‘go back and get it,’ Sankofa means honoring what was in danger of being lost by retrieving and safeguarding it. Carrying it forward into the future, melding the lessons of the past with the surety of the present. Building something from the ancient whispers of ancestors that will guide the future steps of descendants.

Our debut collection reflects our Sankofa journey, where we pull all that is good, strong, resilient and dignified from our complex and storied past, and use it to create a moment that feels good to live inside. African prints detailed with Adinkra symbols, unique animal motifs in grounding colors, and above all the feeling that dressing can be the most authentic form of self-expression all help to shape and inform this uniquely comfortable and sensual line.

Full of personality, energy, and love, Sankofa is beyond fashion: it’s us loving us.
