Kali.Works, also known as Atelier Kali, is a premier Pan-African fashion brand that was founded in Vancouver, Canada, in 2019. Since our inception, Kali.Works has grown significantly, with operations now based Canada and Kenya. Kali.Works Canada is led by Lindani Mokgweetsi “Lindy”. This dual presence allows the brand to seamlessly connect the continent with the global diaspora, embodying a bold Pan-African pride through every collection.
We celebrate African heritage and contemporary design. The name “Kali” reflects our vibrant essence—Kali means spicy, hot, nice, and dope in Swahili—while “works” emphasizes our commitment to diversity, authentic stories and cultural inspirations into our designs.
Through our distinctive knitwear, tailored fits, and unisex pieces, Kali.Works reimagines African history and identity for a modern audience. With every collection, Kali.Works offers a fresh take on African storytelling, blending traditional elements with contemporary fashion, making it a true representation of a global Pan-African aesthetic.
