A deeply personal collection, An Ode to Toni Jo was created in honour of the designer’s father, Tonipre Joseph Sambo.

Through a palette of maroon, grey, and black, it explores themes of grief, strength, and grace in the face of loss.

Each silhouette tells a quiet story. From cotton to tulle and lace, the collection traces a journey from vulnerability to control, from softness to resilience. This was more than a seasonal expression. It was a statement of endurance and a reminder that true strength often emerges after the fall, when you rise, stand tall, and face the world.
