At Brantuo Studio we aim to provide a vintage regularity into the lives of every style concious individual. However, initially as we look into a material story we feel that every woman should be able to enhance and empower details of their story with every seam. We highlight these textures and quality for women to appreciate that they are one of a kind.
Brantuo Studio founder Vea was raised in East London where she was surrounded by amazing style. While studying Architectural Technology, 75 miles away in Brighton University, she visited some of the most renowned vintage hubs in the United Kingdom. This inspired her to bring a different eye to these garments and bring it back to life.
For Vea, hand-picking vintage goods is an intimate process. Before deciding on textures or quality, she thinks about how the fabrics will be used and play a part to the person continuing the story. A collection consists of repaired garments combined together as a story. Completely opposed to an commercial approach, she guides each individual item towards a new tale, ready for the next woman to enhance her story.
Timeless Chic with a Distinctive Touch.
After a few years Vea, realised that sticking to her gut yields the most elegant results. Even when she started documenting her style in 2014, she always matched her meticulousness with curiosity.
Her love of travelling around the globe has helped her scour various warehouses and private collections that have benefited to cultivate a singular yet international style. Today, she spends most of her time collecting and resourcing the appropriate styles to create editorials surrounding art, interiors and cultural references. She is however strongly influenced by her African specifically, Ghanaian heritage and tends to infuse this as a reference to aiding the online store, becoming a reality from the concept. She still makes time to learn new approaches and aims to exhibit at pop-ups boutiques and trade-in markets all around the world.
Presently at Brantuo Studio we're excited to learn new things and develop our keen interest towards documenting Vea’s style, travels & interiors. We offer creative direction, styling which enables us to focus on creative content for brands. We're excited to go on this journey and showcase the visions and working with client and team.
