Selly Raby Kane is a Dakar-based fashion and creative brand redefining the codes of contemporary African style through an avant-garde, multidisciplinary approach. Since its launch in 2012, the brand has blended fashion, film, and visual art to build a bold and immersive universe rooted in Afrofuturism, surrealism, and Senegal’s rich immaterial heritage.
Merging couture craftsmanship with narrative experimentation, Selly Raby Kane creates sculptural garments that channel collage techniques, fantastical imagery, and futuristic silhouettes. Each collection unfolds as a visual manifesto drawing from the subcultures, urban archives, and dreamscapes of Dakar.
With an international presence, Selly Raby Kane is currently distributed in Côte d’Ivoire, Nigeria, France, and Belgium, and has been showcased by cultural institutions such as the Museum of North Carolina, the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, MoMA PS1, and the Guggenheim.
Through fashion, film, and immersive installations, the brand crafts speculative stories that reimagine African futures and celebrate cultural innovation. Selly Raby Kane is more than a label; it is a creative ecosystem shaping new narratives from the continent.
