About Us

In the heart of Africa’s vibrant cultural mosaic lies Kibonen Nfi’s latest collection, “Bimbia,” a profound tribute to resilience and heritage. Named after the poignant “Door of No Return” from the Cameroon coastal frontier, Bimbia encapsulates the narrative of slave trade and sacrifice, echoing through time. Kibonen Nfi honors the ingenuity of African ancestors who handcrafted textiles from nature’s bounty long before modern looms. Barks of trees, Raffia, Jute, animal skin and the hand woven TÜTUÈRE are more than fabrics; they symbolized identity and reverence for the Earth. Through “Bimbia,” Kibonen Nfi pays homage to these sacred fabrics, blending ancient craftsmanship with contemporary flair. It’s a celebration of Africa’s enduring influence on global culture, inviting us to rediscover the vibrancy and soulful narratives of traditional African clothing. Beyond fashion, “Bimbia” is a reminder of humanity’s resilience in the face of adversity. It’s a testament to the unbreakable bond between people and the Earth, offering a glimpse into Africa’s beating heart. With each stitch, “Bimbia” tells a story—a story of survival, creativity, and connection. Through this collection, Kibonen Nfi invites us to embrace the richness of life’s fusion and celebrate the spirit that unites us all.
