ABAGA VELLI

ABAGA VELLI - meaning 'Art Brings Access, Grants Ascendance' -  is a cult design brand specializing in utilitarian, modular clothing with tactile fabrications and artisanal finishes. Co-founder and Creative Director Adémidé Udoma builds the brand's values on community, culture and displacement, ensuring the brand infuses lived experiences and extensive research into every garment, image and graphic they create. Sustainability, purpose and versatility are key tenets of ABAGA VELLI. The designs are solution-focused, but they are also made with adaptability in mind, which can be attributed to the military manoeuvre that inspired the first collection's name COUP 001.
