Garments with a history and style…..The Hemma Collection

Filed Under (General, Spy Trends: Green, Spy the Planet, Spying Good Citizen Brands) by Carolyn Akel on 04-19-2010

Hemma creates fresh, elegant collection using authentic hand-woven kente, a textile rich in African royal tradition. Kente began to flourish in West Africa in 300 A.D. and still remains prominent representing social prestige, luxury, and cultural sophistication. Each garment is uniquely handmade from intricately hand-woven kente imported from Ghana. By incorporating the same techniques used to dress Ghanaian nobility for centuries, Hemma allows each client to exude royalty.

 In the spring of 2007, partners Cindy Gaston and Edna Bissoon studied abroad in Ghana, West Africa. While Cindy, pursued a career in law, and Edna, medicine, they also independently designed. They were inspired by African fashion and textiles, in particular intricately handwoven Kente. Drawing from its rich history, they began incorporating Kente into their designs. At the same time, they were dedicated to volunteering as teachers at La Yahoushua, a local middle school. 

 The passion for their students transcended the classroom as they advised a photography club extending to many students their first opportunity to capture the world around them.

 Once back in New York, Edna and Cindy received such wide acclaim for their creations that they launched a lifestyle brand combining African luxury with a fresh spin on classic designs. 5% of all profits will be donated to the school where they both taught.
