Origin Story

House of Tafari Collection dba Tafari Wraps is a luxury design house and resource celebrating and preserving Afro-Diasporic Culture through functional art of luxury headwraps, home décor, fashion, and art education. Our products are inspired by the vibrancy of the Caribbean and the landscape of Africa with cutting-edge designs.
Designed in our Boston atelier, we center the “kool-aid” colors of bold ankara, indigo, batik, adire and silk whose vibrancy comes alive through our couture fashion.
As a resource, our headwrap consultations, group Wrapshop and Creating Textiles with Adinkra Symbols workshop drive cultural competency while encouraging Black Diasporians to reconnect with their ancestral heritage. 
Tafari's Wrapshops have been endorsed by ​the American Cancer Society, Massachusetts Cancer Coalition, and the Lupus Foundation of New England, also named as a resource for women thriving through cancer in Exhale Lifestyle Magazine.
