Emerald and Wax Designs

Emerald & Wax is borne out of my passion for African wax prints that was ignited when as a child I used to help my grandmother at her wholesale African fabric warehouse in Accra. I draw on this Ghanaian upbringing to bring the art and colour of traditional African wax prints to European design, delivering what I like to describe as wearable art for today’s confident woman looking to bring colour into their everyday lives and wardrobes. After moving to New York, I grew to love Japanese design and architecture, and this represents a strong presence in my collections. I am driven to design and produce each garment so that it is the essence of the Emerald & Wax brand. My collections are extremely wearable and add both colour and style to any capsule wardrobe. Separates, simple shift dresses, and colourful jackets combine easily with simple plain pieces that can easily be incorporated into any wardrobe all year round.
