The Shweshwe story

The Shweshwe range is made entirely of natural, 100% African cotton, is fairly traded and is handmade by a
co-operation of small workshops and charitable skills development programs in the Garden Route of
SOUTH AFRICA.


The range has been developed with immense pride in our South African heritage and in the knowledge that this beautiful cloth should be worn and appreciated by a wider audience
across the world.

     




Who’s that girl?!


Meet the muse ... her name is Antonia and she is the daughter of the founder of the Shweshwe company.
This was the first ever hat made in shweshwe fabric, and this was also the first photo taken of that first hat - and that is really where it all began!
