We are Malaika and Lois. We met outside a reggae event in Worcester and it was ‘mates at first sight’, both sharing a love of music, travel, nature and crafting. We lived together in a wooden house in the hills of Ibiza and from that peaceful place in nature our creativity could run wild.
With Malaika’s eye for design and trends and how to combine colours, together with Lois’s collection of feathery treasures and handy wiring skills, HeadWings took flight! Ibiza being the land of losing your inhibitions, going with the flow and finding yourself we did just that, and miraculous adventures unfolded before us. Opportunities to work/play with wonderful artists and performers from all over the world.
We have gone from selling our feathery creations on a sarong on the floor to watching our designs waltz down catwalks in Ibiza and Madrid. How? Through our friendship, our trust in each other, and by feeling the freedom to spread our wings and express ourselves through our creations.
