Liva Ramanandraibe, founder of IBELIV, introduced his first accessories collection at the Milan Fashion Week in 2013. With a focus on totes, hats, and purses, Mr. Ramanandraibe sought to create products that highlight the quality of the artisanal work of Madagascar. All of his accessories are handmade with natural fibers, combining pure design and authentic high-quality crafting. His creations are the result of true passion for his work, and he derives inspiration from simplicity, happiness and optimism.
His first collection was a success, and the brand secured sales to distributors in many countries all around the world, which was exceptional for a first-time participation in a fashion week.
The enthusiasm for Ibeliv accessories was confirmed last year with the presentation of its second collection. Fortuitously, in three weeks, Liva will introduce his eagerly awaited third collection in Milan, which includes a clothing line designed in partnership with Italian stylist, Mirco Giovanni (who notably dressed Beyonce for her music video “1+1”).
