Maison Bent
Looks 4 and 9.
Lifestyle, Style
September 22, 2024

Maison Bent

First…

Maison Bent continues its dedication to celebrating powerful women from the Caribbean Diaspora with the launch of its latest collection. This line embodies the enduring spirit of Queen Nanny of the Maroons — Jamaica’s revered 18th-century freedom fighter and national hero, who led her people in a protracted guerrilla war. Each piece channels Queen Nanny’s resilience, regality, and strength, seamlessly merged with the grace and power of today’s modern woman.

This Seasonless’25 Collection underscores Maison Bent’s commitment to sustainable luxury. Designed for wear across all seasons, this collection defies the traditional fashion calendar, offering versatile, timeless pieces that are relevant year-round. Signature Maison Bent elements — cut-outs, spiral sleeves, exaggerated gatherings, and decorative yet functional rings — are reimagined to create the brand’s most ambitious and expansive collection to date. Each piece is crafted from locally sourced, British deadstock fabric, furthering the brand’s dedication to sustainability. This collection celebrates those who embody ambition, versatility, and beauty in the modern world.

Maison Bent extends this commitment to versatility and elegance with its very first menswear pieces. These capture the same bold, Caribbean-inspired aesthetic, with a focus on soft tailoring, functional design and a pop of Maison’s signature statement details. Each piece is designed for the modern man who values style and substance. Using premium, eco-conscious materials, the menswear pieces offer sharp whilst relaxed silhouettes that seamlessly transition from day to evening, embodying the Maison Bent philosophy of timeless luxury.

As part of this milestone collection, Maison Bent proudly introduces its first-ever signature handbag, available in slouched suede with subtle blind embossing and crafted from ethically sourced deadstock leather, designed for a gender-neutral, all-day style and offering timeless elegance and durability. Maison Bent is also thrilled to announce an exclusive collaboration with Aubrey Kurlansky Originals and the Museum of Soho. This partnership has resulted in a limited-edition silk scarf that incorporates Maison Bent’s cultural storytelling with the artistic mastery of Kurlansky, known for his blend of contemporary vectors and Art Deco influences. Each scarf will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

The commemorative silk scarf celebrates Mary Seacole, a pioneering woman of Jamaican descent who lived and worked in Soho Square, London, in the 1800s. Seacole defied social norms, overcoming prejudice to travel the world, establish businesses, and aid those in need. Her legacy is a fitting tribute to this luxurious, limited-edition piece.Courtesy of Maison Bent
