A Future Imagined…
SENTI was born out of a love and deep appreciation for West African design and textile traditions. As a fashion line, SENTI is seeking to bring those traditions to a global audience. SENTI is attire for the modern man living and working in cities around the world. Taking elements, patterns, and designs, that are authentically West African, SENTI is reimagining and introducing them to a larger audience to wear and appreciate.
SENTI, at its most fundamental level, is a West African and Igbo brand. Its stated goal is to take these honored traditions and share them with the entire world.
A Modernized Tradition…
Helmed by Nigerian-American designer, CK Ukaga, SENTI borrows heavily from its West African roots in order to produce its fabrics and silhouettes for the brand. Sourcing fabrics predominantly from West Africa, SENTI is extremely mindful in ensuring that the clothing it produces remains true to the legacy that has came before it. Everything from the logo, branding, to the textile printing designed by the brand borrows from West African design, art, or logographic motifs.
“Much like our ancestors have done for years, SENTI hopes to break the proverbial kola nut with all those who wish to experience and share in the West African design tradition with us.”
—CK Ukaga, Creative Director
