Congolese born, London based Womenswear designer Tina Lodondi just released her new Spring/summer collection. Tina designs are very classic and chic. The collection has everything from blazers, to dresses, skirts and shirts so we can all definitely find something we like. Honestly I am still having a hard time choosing my fave piece. I reached out to Tina to find out what was the inspiration behind this beautiful collection here is what she has to say:

"I wanted to create a look for the new generation of girls and women who wants to embrace the African prints. It is chic and feminine, with girls cuts. I observed what the girls wore in the Chelsea area of London and I thought they were missing some colours...I really wanted this collection to follow on the last one and to create a brand identity."

A spokesperson for Sapelle.com said, 


"It's exciting that the global fashion industry is bringing African-inspired design into the mainstream. We think a thriving community of retailers selling these products can only be a good think for the home market - and for the many people out there seeking a range of products they can access easily Our suppliers create beautiful, trendy and well-crafted products in a socially responsible way. Most African-based design labels don’t have a route to the global fashion market, mainly because of logistical issues. And most Western retailers don’t have the resources or the means to seek out the best talent from across the continent. We're here to provide a platform for those suppliers and a bridge to the growing number of discerning shoppers who seek stylish, good quality fashion that looks fantastic and is produced responsibly."

Garments on sale at Sapelle.com include wardrobe staples like tribal print skirts for office, seasonal summer dresses and sophisticated formalwear, with an impressive range of fairtrade bags, priced in the mid-range.
