TINA LOBONDI & NGONE
Tina Lobondi established her fashion label in Notting Hill, London in
2011. Combining African heritage with delicate French couture, her
designs are up-market and classic.
From India to Congo, materials are sourced globally and the collections are entirely produced in Paris and London.
Fabrics are often printed
with Africa-inspired patterns and mixed with precious materials such as
silk and organza.From India to Congo, materials are sourced globally and the collections are entirely produced in Paris and London.
She has worked with numerous artists including Grammy Award winner and New York based singer Angelique Kidjo, and actress Thandie Newton.
Tina will be showcasing at the Africa Fashion Week London 2016 in collaboration with Ngone, a jewellery designer.
Ngone's collections are feminine, timeless and rich in universal influences. She draws her inspiration from different cultures: Paris capital of high fashion where she lives, her African inheritance and during travels.
Through the jewel, Ngone interprets a contrasted vision of the world in a
spirit of fusion, to make her design unique and elegant. Sometimes, she
mixes the metal with materials of garments as the silk, allied to
stones and crystals. Available in necklaces, cuffs, earrings, jewels
become headbands and hair ornaments as the whim takes her. Willing to
produce high end quality, all her collections are handmade in Paris in
collaboration with craftsmen.
