For 30 years Olivier Strelli has been drawing us into a world of subtile materials and tints accentuated by the use of original prints.
Italian by origin, born in the Belgian Congo in 1946, Olivier Strelli would be bathed throughout his adolescence in a universe colored by the palettes of Africa. It is his father, director of a "boubous" printing factory, who would pass on the passion for textile.
After receiving his baccalaureate in Belgium, Strelli enrolls in a textile school in Tournai and completes his studies by earning a post graduate degree from the London School of Economics. In 1969 he would return to Zaire, his land of inspiration.
He also has a "Home Collection" This talent can't be stopped anymore.
