ENEMY OF PROGRESS

  • OUR MISSION

    We empower African creatives and changemakers through fashion.

  • OUR MODEL

    Bring us your idea. We fund the manufacturing. You help with marketing. It’s sold on our website. We share profits. You own the rights.

  • OUR NAME

    What is progress — and who defines it? Too often, it means erasure, imitation, or systems that profit from African creativity without empowering its creators. Being an Enemy of Progress means defining progress on our own terms — through independence, creativity, and cultural power.
