Lalesso Unveils Resort Collection 2015

Lalesso recently showcased their first ever resort collection Sultan's Parade at Cape Town Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015. The exclusively summer label, which was recently nominated for this year's Kenya Fashion Awards as Established Designer of the Year, describes itself as a luxury fashion & lifestyle brand that "supports transparent, sustainable, eco and ethical fashion." Inspired by the East African khanga cloth of Kenya, co-foundersAlice Heusser and Olivia Kennaway launched Lalesso in Cape Town in 2007 by releasing 100 of their trademark Lalesso skirts. Now having expanded into a resort collection, Lalesso unveils more of Kenya's vibrant prints and patterns in easy, free-flowing silhouettes. From kaftan dresses and rompers to two-piece beach-ready ensembles, looks from the Lalesso resort collection retain an elevated sophistication even when paired with summer's most comfortable outdoor footwear.
