Eleven Sixteen is a Lagos-built, globally worn luxury house founded by Chief Ugo Mozie. Every garment is vertically integrated — from growing and weaving raw cotton on African soil to the finished piece on your body. The cowrie shell, the Benin Bronze, the hand of the aso oke weaver: these are not decorations. They are the architecture.
Launched April 5, 2025 in Lagos. Presented at Casa Cipriani, New York. Worn by Diana Ross, Blue Ivy Carter, Jon Batiste, Colman Domingo.
