Benah’s Pinky Swear

You Promise Me

By Kat George, 18 January 2011

‘You Promise Me’ is Benah’s sartorial promise for AW11. An autumnal mix of textures, tones and patterns, Benah embraces the romance of winter with easy grace and womanly elegance. Bringing classic beauty to the fore, Benah combines a clean, timeless aesthetic with a strong, feminine personality.

The collection is a narrative, focusing on the idea that we are constantly searching for completion through otherness. Steeped in ambiguity, Benah poses a question: is the promise kept, or is it broken? And, who is it that has made the promise? Whatever the answer, it’s clear that Benah, at least, has kept a promise to deliver stylishly and lustfully for winter.

Moreover, Benah’s promise is reflexive- the promise that with time and age, we’ll come to realise that true self fulfilment comes from within, and not from without. In shades of rich reds, olive greens and sandy tans, Benah marks this transformational passage with the earth, an indicator of how naturally our wisdom comes to us.

Beautiful bucket bags in Italian leathers and scarves made of Mongolian cashmere and the finest silks, the quality and craftsmanship of Benah’s accessories is a testament to the label’s unique message. Wisdom not only begets contentment, but it also leads to deservedly beautiful and lasting fashion pieces.
