Kilentar - Across the colourful markets and bustling high streets of Southwestern Nigeria, one question echoes: “Ki le n ta?” Translating to “what are you selling?” in Yoruba, this phrase encapsulates the vibrant spirit at the heart of our brand. At Kilentar, we create timeless designs that honour traditional craftsmanship while embracing contemporary aesthetics. Drawing inspiration from Africa’s rich cultural heritage, each piece tells a story.
From the rhythms of Nigeria to the masks of Burkina Faso, and the shores of Côte d'Ivoire, we channel the soul of the continent, preserving ancient techniques in every stitch. Relying on traditional dyeing and weaving methods, our one-of-a-kind garments capture the multidimensional experience of the modern woman — feminine yet fierce, traditional yet modern, stylish yet sustainable. Every Kilentar design is a tribute to the skilled artisans who breathe life into each creation, infusing them with their passion and heritage along the way.
