Mulberry x Ahluwalia

The Mulberry x Ahluwalia capsule collection is the latest in a series of limited-edition Mulberry Editions capsules that celebrate our 50th anniversary.

Our collaboration with designer Priya Ahluwalia sees our signature Portobello Tote and an assortment of scarves reimagined in her signature vibrant aesthetic. The pieces of the collection are influenced by Priya’s mixed Nigerian-Indian heritage, in which hair holds such importance, and her fascination with hair as a means of identity, protest and expression. It celebrates the artistry, rituals and symbolism of Afro-Caribbean hair and Priya’s own personal narrative, which is brought to life through the capsule’s unique designs.
