The latest edition of our Essentials series shines the spotlight on Maurice Ajanaku, Editor-in-Chief of namesake creativity-hub and online magazine AJANAKU.com and Art Director of Vlisco Group. His eponymous website serves as an outlet for his many interests, focusing on everything from Ajanaku’s personal closet and wishlist to architecture, art, fashion, film, music and photography, all while presenting additional content generated by contributors from around the world. As a true gentleman, his essentials include one of his favorite bespoke dress shirts from local tailor Ettemadis alongside a Jupe by Jackie embroidered tie, Floris van Bommel dress shoes, and a Baume & Mercier Classima. Rounding out his favorites are some reading material, his personal Blackberry, and a vintage camera passed down from his father.
