born to be cared for

In the Yoruba language, Abike Ade means "born to be cared for." It is also the name of a bespoke fashion brand founded by multi-hyphenate Nigerian fiber artist, Lewa Adewumi. Heavily inspired by her African culture, Lewa's meticulously handcrafted pieces integrate wearable art into the comfort of everyday life. Her original and one-of-a-kind pieces are dedicated to capturing the beauty and complexity of delicate fashions while centering the timelessness of traditional attire.
