Los Angeles is a melting pot of cultures and designer Kristopher Enuke reflects the multi-cultural mix in his designs. Nigerian born, English educated and raised in Los Angeles gives this designer an eclectic background which is interpreted through his work. He retains the LA cool in his designs while still letting a bit of English eccentricity emerge. The result is a celebration of classic elegance and ethnicity that has the distinct Angeleno air to it as well. Kristopher pays passionate attention to detail and fit while reinventing the clothing. Before designing for Oligo Tissew, he attended Otis Parson and earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design. He has a variety of experience at companies from denim to knitwear which rounded out his education in textile and production.

Kristopher coined the Oligo Tissew label to mean
refined cloth
. It is held by its parent company Oliver Twist whose philosophy of the
orphan who made it good
holds true. This label holds Kristopher's passion for design, but more than that it also is his way of giving back. He has set up a scholarship fund in his hometown village in Nigeria so that village children can improve their future and the success of the Oligo Tissew line enables Kristopher to also help ensure the salaries of the village school teachers.

Kristopher Enuke is a sought after talent whose reputation for design often preceeds him. The Oligo Tissew line is only a small token of his talents, but it is one that many admirors wish to relfect and one that many women wish to wear. Kristopher's main intent is make the wearer of his clothing feel sexy.
