In this interview episode, Fiona talks to sisters Laurinda and Fatuma Ndenzako, founders of Collective Closets, an amazing Melbourne-based clothing label that merges, “the chic deconstructed but restrained silhouettes of Melbourne and the wild, untamed, and deregulated aesthetics of modern African fashion drawing inspiration from the city of Nairobi.” Listen in to this chat as Laurinda and Fatuma share their experiences running a small business as sisters, how they cope with motherhood and business, and their top tips on becoming a truly empowering brand.
