LET ME SEE YOU DO A TRIBAL SKANK

Sunday


'When I was young, we played in groups in the streets, and here I was really isolated(France). It made me realize how much I loved the whole spirit of Africa.' Lamine kouyate

XULY BET

This new project is about rediscovering the roots of the designer, and using their key trademarks and true spirt to create something new. my designer i have been given is Lamine Kouyate aka Xuly Bet.

He is......put off by pretension, inspired by his roots (Africa), a recycling fiend, flamboyent with colours and prints, funky and urban. Xuly Bet means 'voyeur', But it isn't just 'a voyeur', It's more than that. Xuly-Bet is someone who tries to break through appearances. In Senegal, the real meaning is 'keep your eyes open.'
