Collaborate

Creative partnerships, pamoja tunaweza

“The most enduring work is made together: between a designer and a community, between a vision and those bold enough to believe in it.”

An invitation

This is not a pitch. It is an invitation.

Bobbin Case has spent over a decade proving that the most powerful fashion does not come from luxury fabric houses. It comes from vision, craft and an uncompromising connection to place and community.

From the sisal sack markets of Kampala to the runways of Accra and Kigali and the galleries of Amsterdam, Mukasa Najib has built something rare: a body of work that is simultaneously avant-garde and deeply rooted, internationally recognised and unmistakably African.

We are not looking for patrons. We are looking for partners: brands, institutions and individuals who understand that the next chapter of this story will be written collectively, and who want to be part of writing it.

“They got everyone electrified. A standing ovation, rare for a brand of any age, let alone one this new.”

Accra Fashion Week, 2016

  • Shared presence at international runway shows and art exhibitions
  • Joint storytelling across press, digital and community platforms
  • Access to one of the most distinct visual identities in contemporary African fashion
  • Alignment with verified sustainable and circular fashion practice
