DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT: Christie Brown by Aisha Obuobi

Posted by Robyn Burnaford on

Aisha Obuobi founded her clothing line Christie Brown in 2008 in Accra, Ghana.  We first discovered the stunning Spring/Summer 2020 Lookbook when curating our Diversity in Design Style Board series and immediately pinned her perfect metallic silver dress with our favorite Layered Hoops.  We're equally obsessed with the ready-to-wear collection available to shop online, especially the metallic gold Classic Bermuda Shorts, stunning Abstract Neckline Blouse and impeccably draped Metallic Drape Front Skirt.

Aisha named the line after her grandmother, a seamstress, and was inspired by watching her "create rich and vibrant garments.  As a little girl she reveled in playing with shreds of African material and designed mini collections for her favourite dolls."  Today, the line now designs both ready-to-wear and bespoke garments with a fashion of colour and culture, fit for the contemporary African woman."

We're currently pinning everything and everything from Aisha's collections, and can't wait to see what's next for this incredible brand!
