Head Of Production at Masai
“Here at Masai, we’re extremely proud of our suppliers. Some of them we have worked with since the very first collection, so they know Masai as well as we do. It’s equally remarkable that our main suppliers are women, which lends a special understanding to the collections we create together. We don’t actually have very many suppliers, but we work extremely closely with the few we use. In fact, we work so closely that we sometimes get invited to a family wedding, or receive a joyful phone call with news of a daughter’s engagement. I feel so privileged, and it really warms my heart that I’m allowed to keep company with such wonderful women. I feel, too, that you have to consider how many women’s hands have touched a piece of Masai clothing before we hang it up in the shop, which makes you feel part of something bigger.”

MASAI STORIES
MASAI STORIES är porträtt av kvinnoliv som framförs genom tankar och reflektioner från engagerade och passionerade kvinnor. Historierna handlar om mångfald, öppenhet, mod och inte minst om friheten att vara och välja sig själv. Genom mötet med olika kvinnor, vilka alla inspirerar oss med sina livsval och sin kreativitet, är vår önskan att skapa en alldeles speciell inblick i kvinnornas världar. På detta sätt kan vi visa den skönhet och styrka som uppstår när livspassioner får möjlighet att utvecklas och när man väljer att lyssna till sig själv och göra det man drömmer om.
