Nicole Miller's Indego Africa Clothing Collection
Last fall, Nicole Miller partnered with Indego Africa, a nonprofit organization that supports women artisans in Rwanda, for a collection of textile bangles and woven bracelets.
Now the designer has announced that the charitable collaboration is expanding to include apparel as well.
Miller’s fair trade Indego collection includes summer sarongs and short-shorts in a variety of brightly printed African textiles as well as more of the bangles and woven bracelets that first brought the two together.
“I’ve always loved the vibrancy and hand-crafted feel of African prints and textiles,” Miller said in a release. “Working with different fabrics and prints is a big part of what I do. With my collections, we use digital technology and graphics to create prints so using African textiles was a nice departure from that.”
The new offerings are available now at nicolemiller.com, and 15% of the proceeds will go to Indego Africa.
