Nairobi-based concept fashion store Ichyulu, which launched in January 2016, has just teamed up with Kenyan photographer Migwa Nthigah and local style bloggers from 2ManySiblings to create a series that celebrates Nairobi’s growing style scene.
 
As a lover of African fashion, Ichyulu was set up to provide a platform that would connect designers with potential consumers and serve as an alternative distribution channel. Ichyulu’s focus is to provide a curated retail experience for those who seek unique pieces to match their individual style. Part of the ethos is to celebrate the diversity of African fashion through showcasing the use of local materials, customs prints and craftsmanship.

2ManySiblings is made up of Velma Rossa and Oliver Asike from Nairobi, Kenya. They are a brother and sister duo who are curating transitional contemporary African narratives which they showcase at on their blog. Migwa Nthigah (MagiqLens Kenya) is a photographer based in Nairobi, Kenya.
