Sound and Design.
The unique style of British rapper Little Simz steps off the stage of her Lotus tour to become a creative partnership merging music, fashion, and cultural symbolism with fashion label Maharishi.
MAHASIMBI, the name of the collection, pairs Maharishi’s signature craftsmanship with Little Simz’s fearless, genre-defying artistry. Each look has been custom-designed for the stage, drawing on deep symbolism to reflect the spirit of the Lotus project.
Key pieces feature a distinctive camouflage that blends Maharishi’s DPM: Bonsai Tigerstripe with vibrant lotus motifs – a symbol of transformation and resilience, and the title of Simz’s latest album. Tour jackets include bespoke embroidered patches representing each track from Lotus and every city visited, in colourways inspired by Simbi’s synaesthesia, while designs such as the MA-1–inspired nylon skirt balance utilitarian structure with graceful movement.
Sustainable materials, including textiles woven from lotus fibres, highlight the collaboration’s commitment to nature, craftsmanship, and innovation. Select pieces from the collection will be released in limited quantities – offering fans a rare opportunity to own part of this creative dialogue between two forces redefining British artistry.
