Few names in art and design have the same elegance and cross-cultural resonance as Lolita Lorenzo. The creation of Kenyan-American designer and artist Carol Muthiga, Lolita Lorenzo reflects a classic style influenced by a diverse range of cultures and the enchanted streets of Paris.

Born in Nairobi, Carol spent her early years moving to Canada. Her path to becoming Lolita Lorenzo was as varied as the sources of inspiration she used. After taking a break to raise her girls in Paris, rekindling her passion for design, Carol created the elegant collection that carries her daughters' names, Chiara Lola and Siena Lorenza.

The Minaudière collection is the foundation of Lolita Lorenzo; it is a showcase for boldness, elegance, and timeless style.

The celebration of empowerment and legacy that is Lolita Lorenzo's allure goes beyond aesthetics. Carol was drawn to the vivid hues and elaborate designs found at African textile markets, which led her to pursue cultural exploration. She learned about old customs and supported the unsung heroes who kept these crafts alive.

Drawing inspiration from notable designers such as Elsa Peretti and Consuelo Castiglioni, Carol infuses her designs with a geometric edge, fusing Italian refinement with African prints. The outcome? It is an exquisite, genuinely one-of-a-kind item with the coveted "Made in Italy" label.
