Created by Akintunde Ahmad, Ade Dehye is a sustainable fashion brand rooted in the rich textile heritage of West Africa. Founded with a mission to honor craftsmanship and combat the global challenges of fast fashion, we collaborate with artisans and communities across the region to create timeless pieces.

At the heart of our brand are handwoven and hand-dyed fabrics, showcasing the artistry and traditions passed down through generations. Our journey began with a commitment to ethical sourcing and uplifting the communities we work with, ensuring fair wages and sustainable practices. Every garment tells a story of resilience, creativity, and culture—empowering individuals to wear pieces that make a difference.

Ade Dehye goes beyond fashion; we are dedicated to reducing waste, promoting circularity, and addressing waste colonialism by upcycling materials and partnering with local markets like Ghana’s Kantamanto. Through these efforts, we aim to redefine fashion as a force for good, blending style, sustainability, and social impact.

Mudcloth

Mudcloth, or bogolanfini, is a traditional handmade fabric from Mali, West Africa, created by weaving cotton and dyeing it with fermented mud. With a history spanning centuries, this art form carries deep cultural significance, with its patterns often telling stories or symbolizing important meanings within the community.

Fugu

Fugu, also known as Batakari, is a traditional handwoven fabric from northern Ghana, crafted from thick strips of cotton sewn together. With a history dating back centuries, it is a symbol of heritage and identity, often worn for special occasions and ceremonies to reflect status and cultural pride.

Upcycled Denim

Our upcycled denim is crafted from repurposed materials, giving discarded fabrics a new life while reducing waste and promoting sustainability. By blending modern design with a commitment to environmental impact, each piece tells a story of transformation, proving that fashion can be both stylish and responsible.
