Material:
Transforming authentic vintage Vietnam War tent canvas into apparel and accessories is our unique and sustainable project. These tents, which once served as temporary shelters, form the core of our products.
When working with this material, consider its durability and weight, and design pieces that highlight its rustic charm. Be sure to clean and treat the canvas properly to ensure usability.
Enjoy crafting distinctive, one-of-a-kind items!
Mission: Philosophy
Over two decades of precision CUSTOM TAILORING AND manufacturing under one roof…
Tunji Dada® views consumer satisfaction as his guiding principle. He is committed to reducing overconsumption and waste by embracing a circular economy. As a staunch advocate for responsible consumption to encourage sustainable practices.
Born and raised in Nigeria, Tunji Dada’s passion for fashion was nurtured by his mother, a seamstress, and later shaped by his experiences in New York, Boston, and Tokyo. After moving to the U.S. in his twenties, Dada began to deconstruct and reconstruct garments, developing a design ethos rooted in individuality and self-expression. His embrace of Japanese wabi-sabi principles—celebrating the beauty of imperfection—deeply influenced his signature aesthetic.
Dada’s work gained significant recognition in Japan, where his philosophy of impermanence and artisanal craftsmanship resonated with a wide audience. He’s now in quest for future collaborations that will further underscore his growing influence in the global fashion design scene.
Tunji Dada is a fine art and tailoring graduate, with a major In Fashion Design at The Massachusetts College of Art with a bachelor’s degree in 1996.
Thoughtfully designed to match your life — made with care for a greener future.
