OUR HISTORY - OUR MISSION
CABO by MILKA was founded in 2012 by Milka Loff Fernandes and her partners. Milka was born and raised in Germany as the daughter of Cape Verdean immigrants and is a well known and highly successful TV-host.
Being in the eye of the public, Milka soon felt the need to express her heritage and upbringing throughout her words, her actions and her appearance. She totally fell for the quality and the playfulness of African waxprints and the vibrance and radiance of bazin riche which made her want to implement these fabrics in her - other than that - rather minimalistic wardrobe. That way she created a style, that could be down or upgraded due to any occasion - a style that would fit any woman according to her needs. But most importantly of all, she created items, that would be worn for comfort in even the most uncomfortable situations. Because the fit of your clothes should be the last thing you worry about.
IT'S ALL IN THE MIX
The one word which describes our brand best is „criolu“. On Cape Verde islands this word is not only the term for the local language, it also stands for the national identity and culture of the Capeverdean people. „Criolu“ means mixture. Cape Verde is a place, where European influences and incluences from all over the world mix with African traditions.
Milka Loff Fernandes represents this mix perfectly. She is as „criolu“ as it can get and she loves it. To her this means to enjoy integrating what the world has to offer, enjoy it and making it work for you.
With CABO by MILKA she tries to share this joy of being by weaving it into her styles.
