Vlisco produces new designs each year, combining innovative designs alongside traditional prints. Here the old and the new combine to create something totally original and individual. Inspired by Africa, crafted with a technique derived from Indonesia and handcrafted in the Netherlands, Vlisco creates global fabrics that reach into the worlds of fashion, design and culture. Echoing Miklošová’s own approach to design and fashion, in collaboration with Vlisco, she has created a range of unique collections and pieces that fuse together tradition and innovation.

In their first collaboration, in Autumn 2018, Miklošová designed jewellery for Vlisco’s campaign ‘New Traditions’ – a celebration of the Amazons of Benin and the tradition of Asoebi. Asoebi is a traditional dress worn in Western African cultures worn during festival periods and during ceremonies that indicates cooperation and solidarity between peoples. Miklošová’s jewellery married beautifully with the Vlisco-designed pieces, drawing attention to the innate beauty in the people and the dress.
