Benita Teta

University of Portsmouth

I’m a creative with a deep love for making things and an instinctive eye for detail. Styling and bringing ideas to life is where I thrive, turning inspiration into something tangible is always exciting for me. My work is rooted in storytelling and connection, and my most recent collection draws from the richness of African heritage. I’ve explored natural, earthy color palettes and worked exclusively with 100% pure cotton fabrics and waxed cotton to honor both tradition and sustainability. Whether I’m styling a look or building a garment from the ground up, I aim to create pieces that feel authentic, grounded, and expressive.
