Anta-Atta Cissé was born and raised in Marseille, in the south of France. Passionate about fashion, well-being and decoration, she decided to move to Senegal in 2019, after completing her studies in marketing. Her goal was to become the manager of the first showroom for a dermocosmetics brand. For two years, she had the pleasure of reconnecting with her native country and discovering the wonders of Senegalese designers and artisans.
She often likes to repeat that her favorite place is at home. After a long day at work, she hurries off her high heels and puts on her pyjamas. These pyjamas go beyond mere comfort, being both elegant and glamorous, allowing her to entertain her friends at home or head to the little boutique on the corner.
In 2022, she began a collaboration with her tailor to design a pajama set made entirely in Senegal, inspired by ethnic patterns and colors. Thus was born the idea of creating ANTA: a homewear-loungewear brand offering casual, comfortable outfits suitable for wearing at home, on the beach and on many other occasions.
FROM AFRICA TO THE WORLD
ANTA is much more than just a brand, as you'll see: it takes us right to the heart of the world of "made in Senegal", "made in Africa".
Anta made sure to work with many artisans, especially for her first collection entitled "Mother Africa". This inaugural collection, inspired by the colors of her homeland, celebrates her African heritage and pays tribute to her maternal grandmother, Atta.
Thanks to her creativity, visionary spirit and love of Senegal, Anta offers a unique type of homewear, pieces designed to be worn at home and beyond.
Its aim is to become a benchmark for loungewear "made in Africa" and to showcase confident, bold women, while promoting the skills of Senegalese artisans.
