Founded by designer Neo Serati Mofammerein 2014, the brand specialises in unisex garments that explore the margins of gender and sexuality, while bearing in mind their South African heritage. Nao Serati is all about a dialogue which asks, dissects and often subverts what it is to be a man or a woman in modern-day Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Neo Serati, a LISOF graduate, says of the brand, \u201cMy clothes are informed by South African youth culture, picking up on all the visual cues, the rebellious attitude and the spirit of innovation\u201d. Merging conceptual fashion with a commercial air of democracy and accessibility is at the top of the brands agenda, \u201cI enjoy partaking in fashion\u2019s fluidity and its ability to swing between high-brow and lo-fi \u2013 and I think everyone deserves to enjoy it as well\u201d.
