Hemma creates fresh, elegant collections using authentic hand-woven Kente, a textile rich in African royal tradition. Kente began to flourish in West Africa in the 17th century and still remains prominent representing social prestige, luxury, and cultural sophistication. Each garment is uniquely handmade from intricately hand-woven Kente imported from Ghana. By incorporating the same techniques used to dress Ghanaian nobility for centuries, Hemma allows each client to exude royalty. By investing in quality pieces that last a lifetime, the lives of Ghanaian school children are also impacted. A percentage of all proceeds will be donated to a West African middle school where the designers instructed classes.

Hemma on MTV's TJ Finale

Tune in to the MTV TJ Search Finale this Sunday at 10PM to spot Hemma!
We had a great time at finalist DJ X's finale event at Sapphire Lounge. The designer showcase featured Stevie Boi's futuristic accessories, frocks covered in chains, and of course Hemma. There were also great performances by the talented Mickey Factz and Jesse Boykins.
Be sure to vote for DJ X during the finale!
