Alethe is a self-taught fashion designer and entrepreneur and founder of Kyn Apparel; a bold and unique fashion line. She brings both her African and Canadian background forward in her designs. In this episode, we talk about her creative journey and design processes and the behind the scenes of running a business. We also talk about issues of cultural appropriation associated with the complicated colonial global history behind what has come to define “Dutch Wax” known as African prints.
