Hey Veiled Besties! Can we all agree that this year's fashion week did not disappoint? AHHHHHHH 😆! It was incredible seeing so many rising African designers and brands that are establishing their mark in this evolving fashion world. To celebrate support for the African diaspora, Veiled Visionaries collaborated with Sankofa, a bag brand rooted in African heritage and storytelling.

Sankofa designs are inspired by history and heritage, essentially pondering the question: who and what legacy shapes who we are today? When you look at these bags, it provokes individuals to reflect on identity and purpose.

With a map of Africa and images of various African leaders from countries like South Africa, Tanzania, Ghana, and many others imprinted on the bag, it mirrors back to us how empowering it can feel to be African instead of having a sense of discouragement of our background.

To conclude, this collaboration with Sankofa is because we truly admire their mission and vision of sharing Africa with the world. They are not just your ordinary bags, but share deep meaning on what having African pride truly is. With the growing presence and partnerships of African brands, we can shape the future to better our communities.
