Wanna Box?

Boxing Kitten celebrates the spirits and lives of captivating women of the past, along with the playfulness and vibrancy of women today. Best known for its combination of bold and fearless cuts with African inspired fabrics, the line embraces contradiction with its ‘ethnic rockabilly’ look. With vintage inspired pieces, the collection is culturally and politically driven by the Civil Rights Movement.

Maya A. Lake is the founder and designer of Boxing Kitten and her pieces have been worn by celebrities such as Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Rihanna and Fergie just to name a few.

The Resort 2010 collection consists of dresses skirts, blazers, jumpsuits and shoes (in fun, vibrant colors) that would fit in any women’s wardrobe. Josephine Baker was the main inspiration for this collection. In addition, the mixed-print trend is very popular this year. Our personal favorite for this year is the Collette Dress.

A lot of the pieces are already for sale. However, the Cheeky shoes are now available for pre-order with only 50 pairs to be sold!

This limited edition shoe is eco-friendly with a heel made from 100% recycled tires and each shoe is signed on the bottom by the cobbler who constructed it. The Cheeky also features a fun cut-out on the sides of the shoe for an ultra quirky twist just in time for summer! Also, Boxing Kitten collaborated with the Osborn Company because of their fair treatment of workers and their environmentally friendly production.
