"Founded by supermodel Liya Kebede in 2007, lemlem is a brand that is artisan-driven. Kebede was inspired by a trip she made back to her native country, Ethiopia, she found out that traditional weavers in her community were losing their jobs due to their goods not being in demand. To preserve this ancient artisan practice, she founded her brand and created job opportunities for locals. As a result, the production of lemlem’s pieces are hand-woven in Ethiopia and is the first international brand made in Africa. Collections from the brand offer breezy beach selections from linen sets and accessories in modern prints."
