Zip and Zen is a Afrocentric fashion label inspired and named after my 2 kids Ziphezinhle and Zenzonhle. Our garments allow people to express their personality and creativity through their wardrobe and our African prints give character even to the smallest personalities.

Your comfort is out top priority and we design clothes that are versatile while enhancing natural will to move. We use the WE ARE AFRICA slogan to help socialise humans into understanding and accepting the rich and diverse cultures of the African continent we all call home. We hope you will enjoy our garments wash after wash.
