Angeline Hayling of Island Tribe

 

Forget the saying “it takes a village”. For Angeline Hayling, it’s always been about the Tribe. 

Island Tribe is the feminine, free-spirited womenswear brand founded by Angeline and OD Odero. With sustainability and holistic practices serving as cornerstones of the brand’s identity, Island Tribe quickly attracted a loyal following and grew the community that’s now known as “the Tribe”. Based in Los Angeles, their designs are inspired by the natural landscape around them — the ocean, the desert — and seek to give off a relaxed, adventurous vibe. The focus is on connecting to the earth, both through the designs themselves and through business practices. The brand even donates a portion of sales towards Offset Earth’s mission to plant trees and recover forests.

WHAT DOES THE WORD TRIBE MEAN TO YOU? To me; a Tribe is an empowered community. It’s also about sisterhood, we are all connected and need each other.

 FAVE MOVIE FROM THE 90s: Pretty Woman: I love a feel-good romantic comedy and pretty woman tops my list. I’ve watched it so many times over the years.
