About
Hello!
Welcome to Whiskey&Venner.
I'm Eileen and I'm passionate about African print cloths and African inspired designs. I believe nothing captures the spirit of this more than African cloth; the vibrancy, use of colours and designs are just so bold, brave and unique.
It brings joy to the eye and lifts to the soul.
How it started
My love of African cloths started when I was a much younger funkier version of myself. I would go on shopping expeditions hunting out the few shops I could find in Shepherds Bush, Brixton or Dalston in London that were selling these fabulously exquisite colourful cloths. I would use these cloths to create for myself distinctive fashion statements, along with voluminous headwraps, totes and cross body bags that I was so into at that time.
Moving on two decades later the simple tote bag, is still one of the best selling items that I make, but I have now grown my business to include, soft furnishings, clothing, and accessories that combine the soul of Africa with the heart of Britain. They're stylish, practical, fun and well made with love and passion. I create items made to last more than just a fashion season. I make items that make a long-term statement about who you are and how you choose to live.
But don't take my word for it. Bag yourself some W&V African style that won't cost you the earth. Order here online and we'll deliver African inspired style straight to your home.
Thank you for your interest in my products.
Each one is a work of heart!
