Mayele is a clothing and textile brand created by Olivier Brams in 2018. The concept was born out of an idea for a joint project with one of his friends. At the time, the concept worked, but Olivier wanted to create something more his own. A brand of textiles that would reach a wider audience and reflect the values to which he is committed every day. So he decided to go it alone and rename his clothing brand: Mayele.

Mayele means “intelligence” in Lingala. The choice of name for his brand is largely based on Olivier’s experience and values: “My values come from my origins. They’re values that were instilled in me throughout my childhood. Without the intelligence of my parents and family, I could never have achieved all this. Walking with intelligence is the culmination of a whole project, a whole life.”

Mayele‘s origins lie in the unique and fundamental bond of the family. The slogan of this clothing brand therefore takes on its full meaning: elegance represents a whole body of knowledge, an art of living and self-expression. It is linked to the personality of each individual and to a form of intelligence that comes not from the mind, but from the heart.
