About Madam WokieMadam Wokie is a Sierra Leone based fashion brand and social enterprise founded by Marynn Kaikai in 2009 to design exclusive, durable and affordable African-inspired garments and accessories. The brands name is inspired by Marynn's maternal great-grandmother, Madam Wokie Massaquoi, one of the few female Paramount Chief’s in post-colonial Sierra Leone.
Madam Wokie specialises in producing African inspired bridal, ready-to-wear and bespoke garments. The brand fuses heritage Sierra Leonean aesthetics with elegant modern designs. Having started off with a ready-to-wear line, the brand has expanded to include bespoke tailoring, styling, fashion consultancy, bag, jewellery, footwear and fabric production.
Maryann Kaikai is the Founder and Creative Director of Madam Wokie. Marynn was born and raised in Freetown, Sierra Leone, and spent parts of her formative life in Ghana, The Gambia, Togo and several countries across Africa. She attended The Limount College Secondary School and the Fourah Bay College, University of Sierra Leone.
