Imane Ayissi

Imane Ayissi is a Cameroonian designer whose work bridges haute couture with African heritage. Trained as a dancer before turning to fashion, his approach is grounded in movement, elegance, and storytelling through fabric.

Using traditional textiles such as kente, faso dan fani, and raffia, Ayissi reinterprets ancestral techniques with a refined, contemporary hand. Each garment speaks to a layered identity—one that honors cultural memory while engaging with global fashion on its own terms. At its heart, Imane Ayissi is an offering of grace and intention, where craftsmanship becomes a dialogue between past, present, and possibility.
