Fashion across continents: Fusing traditions of Bangladesh and Senegal
“It all started over a cup of coffee,” explained Faiza Ahmed. Hadja Sata Seck is a Senegalese interior designer and radio host by profession. She met Faiza Ahmed, proprietor and designer of the clothing brand Manas, quite serendipitously. And, what began as a casual rendezvous soon blossomed into a rewarding cultural collaboration.
Seck, standing at 5 feet 11 inches tall, had previously purchased a saree from Manas that unfortunately did not fit her. “When we met, she asked if I could design something tailor-made for her. And I thought, why not? That’s how the idea of our unique collaboration came to mind,” Ahmed shared.
