Lynda Nanu Ng’eno
Our facilitator for today is Lynda Nanu Ng’eno, founder and CEO of FAVOLOSO BY NANU; a brand that mixes fabrics and prints, using bold colours to create unique pieces that are authentic and timeless. With fashion being a destination reached through an experimental journey for Lynda, her fascination with being able to convert fabric into clothes as a form of expression has led to the creation of a brand that is bold and authentic.
“My aim is to work towards building a fully sustainable and ethical brand, creating unique products that have global appeal.” – Lynda Nanu.
Favoloso is fabulous in Italian, a name she chose from being inspired by the Italian combination of creativity and craftsmanship when it comes to fashion. Lynda wants women feeling fabulous in her clothing. At the same time, she aspires to make a positive impact within the fashion industry both locally and globally, telling an African story through her brand in the most authentic way possible.
