Michele grew up in a seaside village, south of Durban, in KwaZulu Natal, South Africa.

She has always been inspired by Africa’s rich, multi-cultural and creative heritage; the outdoors lifestyle and the verve for life which seems to exude from its people.

Durban hosts one of the most concentrated population of Indian people, outside of India. Growing up alongside the Indian and African communities and seeing their layering of vibrant and earthy colours, natural fabrics, their ornate jewellery & their skilled basket & bead crafts, has been Michele’s greatest influences for her designs and fabric & product choices.
