Model Liya Kebede Talks Lemlem, Her Sustainable Clothing Line
The catwalker’s LemLem collection is a model of sustainability. Would you expect anything else from a beauty like her?
Liya Kebede discovered that traditional weavers in her native country of Ethiopia were losing their jobs due to a decline in local demand for their goods and wanted to do something about it. Recognizing the beauty, quality and historic significance of their work, Liya started Lemlem in 2007 as a way to inspire economic independence in her native country and to preserve the art of weaving.
