This March, O’Eclat Designs Co. travels to Dakar for a special pop-up in collaboration with Imaara Concept Store and Lhaude Africa.

More than a retail moment, this is a meeting of stories, of craft, culture, and community across West Africa.

For this showcase, we introduce a capsule collection that builds on what we believe in: thoughtful design, material integrity, and the beauty of making by hand.

At the heart of this collection are handwoven textiles sourced from Northern Nigeria, paired with locally sourced leather and reimagined offcut materials from our production process. These offcuts are transformed into hand-stitched appliqués, feathered accents, raffia elements, and layered textures—each detail intentional, each piece carrying its own rhythm.

Nothing is added for excess. Nothing is wasted.

This capsule is an exploration—of texture, movement, and form. Familiar silhouettes take on new expressions through surface play and material layering, offering pieces that feel both grounded and unexpected.

Our presence in Dakar is also about connection.

In collaboration with Lhaude Africa and Imaara Concept Store, this pop-up brings together a curated selection of Nigerian brands, creating space for dialogue, discovery, and shared creative energy within the African fashion ecosystem.

We are proud to be part of this moment—representing not just a brand, but a way of making that honours the many hands behind every piece.

Join us in Dakar. Experience the collection. Become part of the story.
