Savanna Creations is a forward-thinking clothing brand. As a result, it combines modern with traditional aesthetics through each piece which all comes from the creative force behind the label, Eliane Sarr.<\/p>\n

Born in\u00a0Dakar, Senegal, a career in the fashion space was far from what Sarr envisioned for herself. With dreams of becoming a pilot or astronaut when she was\u00a0 younger, Sarr eventually found herself working as a top financier in France, before moving to Dubai in 2010. However, there was a creative side to her which she began to explore after relocating to the UAE, having always been eager to explore the beauty of textiles, something which she used to collect from her travels.<\/p>\n

This led to Savanna Creations, a brand which encompasses capsule collections<\/a> inspired by her dreams. A passionate designer, Sarr is intrigued by textiles, therefore, she incorporates the aesthetics of different cultures into her clothes, combining the traditional and modern into comfortable and contemporary apparel.<\/p>\n

Now sold in “four key cities” across the globe, including Dubai, GRAZIA’s Career Edit walks you through Sarr’s journey from finance to fashion.<\/p>\n
