Made slowly, in Accra
The house
VANVORSH was founded on a single idea: that a garment should hold its line without asking for attention. The house works in a narrow palette and a narrow set of shapes, refining them season after season rather than replacing them.
The designer
Trained in tailoring and pattern cutting, VANVORSH works from a small studio in Accra with a team of six. She cuts the first sample of every style herself.
Philosophy
Less, but better made. Volume before decoration. A hem that falls correctly is worth more than any embellishment.
Craftsmanship
Every coat is hand-finished. A single tailored piece takes up to eleven days from first cut to final press, and each one is inspected twice before it leaves the atelier.
Materials
Virgin wool, double-faced cashmere, silk georgette and alpaca, sourced from mills with long-standing relationships to the house.
Responsibility
Production is made to order wherever possible. Offcuts are returned to the atelier and reworked into smaller pieces. Nothing is destroyed.
