Adele Dejak is Back at Village Market: Heritage Meets High Fashion (with a Side of Sass)
Guess who’s back?
with flair, style, and a dash of Kenyan heritage
Adele Dejak has returned to the Village Market, reopening its flagship store after a pandemic-induced pause, the brand is ready to dazzle Nairobi once again with its iconic, handcrafted fashion accessories.
But this isn’t just a reopening—it’s a victory lap. Since the Village Market store’s last run, Adele Dejak has been busy making waves globally. From Lagos Fashion Week to the Tranoï shows in Paris and Tokyo, and even cozying up to the likes of Ladymaker and Emmy Kasbit in Nigeria and Ghana, the brand has secured its place on the international stage of African-inspired luxury. Basically, it’s been a glow-up of epic proportions.
“Our journey has been one of resilience and creativity,” says Adele Dejak, Founder and Creative Director. “Returning to Village Market feels like coming home—but with a suitcase full of stories and style to share.”
The Lamu Recycled Bag
The revamped store brings fresh designs, including the standout Lamu Recycled Bag, created in collaboration with women artisans. Made from recycled materials and bursting with character, these bags are a testament to the brand’s commitment to sustainability and community empowerment.
Every Adele Dejak piece is a love letter to African tribes, textiles, and traditions, transformed into bold accessories by skilled artisans. From statement jewelry to handbags that could make even Marie Kondo keep them, the brand celebrates individuality, culture, and style.
