Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication
Contemporary womenswear by Noxolo Sitshinga — naturally dyed, made slowly, and made to last.
Sustainable
Natural dyes and responsible materials, chosen before anything is cut.
Custom
Pieces made to order, fitted to the woman who will wear them.
Timeless
Cut to be worn for years rather than for a season.
A contemporary fashion brand, rooted in craft
Purple Pot Designs brings together timeless elegance, craftsmanship and sustainable design — sophisticated, wearable pieces made for the contemporary woman.
Every piece begins with the cloth. Fabrics are dyed by hand using ingredients from the earth, then cut cleanly and finished carefully, so the making is visible in the wearing.
