Babatunde is a Yoruba Nigerian name which means "the father returns": African and traditional values are the core of the brand, based in Johannesburgh.

Fabrics are hand-made in Africa, in a traditional manner, with application of wax. The prints represent the uniqueness of each human being, personnality and mood: each fabric is unique.
