Ocacia is a designer label that specializes in luxury handmade attire. Each garment we make is unique to each client.  Our clients are those looking for unique and premium, yet modern and functional African cultured attire at the click of a mouse. We are 100% African-owned and believe in trade over aid as a means of social and economic empowerment.  

Drawing on attention to the finest details, while standing on ancient African traditions, Ocacia is a brand with a distinctive collection for those who want to make a unique fashion statement. Handcrafted and uniquely customizable for every client. Our clothes are beautifully presented for the highest taste for all occasions.

Ocacia believes that just as Milan or Paris carry prestige, we are putting prestige around "made by Africans." We firmly believe that Africans must be at the forefront of the industry; making final goods and adding our unique aesthetic to the globalized markets. Ocacia is 100% owned by Africans from Ethiopia (Female), SA (African Female), and the Diaspora (UK). We own all aspects of our clothing production.  

Today the world is becoming very mono-cultural, everyone wears the same clothes. However, some people want to stand out from the crowd and make an individual statement that is rooted in African heritage. And in a globalized world, people want to be able to say "This was made in Africa." by African people. 

WHAT WE ARE ABOUT

We recognized three problems with the African fashion industry: Modernity, quality, and global availability:

  • Dedicated to quality African products
  • Creating modern African clothes built on age-old traditions
  • Creating sustainable markets in Africa and the African Diaspora owned by Africans
  • Exporting African culture and making Africa a partner in globalization and not a victim.
