In partnership with Stella Artois, the collection celebrates mindful luxury, intentional movement, and storytelling in every piece.
Lifestyle brand Neimil has unveiled the Pole Pole Collection – a limited-edition capsule that invites wearers to embrace the luxury of time well spent. Created in collaboration with Stella Artois, the collection fuses fashion, culture, and storytelling into handcrafted garments that honour connection, celebrate craftsmanship, and reflect the quiet beauty of slowing down.
Swahili for “slowly, slowly,” Pole Pole takes inspiration from a soul-stirring journey to Zanzibar, where life flows at a pace that honours stillness, reflection, and care. Designed by award-winning Keneilwe Mothoa, the collection captures the island’s sun-washed walls, vibrant spice markets, and coastal calm through fluid silhouettes, tactile textures, and thoughtful details.

Handcrafted in Johannesburg, each piece is a tribute to the richness of African tradition, fusing Swahili, North African, and Southern African influences into garments that invite the wearer to move with intention and grace. A soft, earthy palette of clay, sand, and burnt sienna, accented by ocean blues and whites, evokes both land and sea in equal measure.
“Pole Pole is more than a collection – it’s an invitation to pause, to savour, to reconnect with a rhythm of life that often gets lost in the rush,” says Keneilwe Mothoa, co-founder of Neimil with partner Lubaba Mxalisa. “Having worked with Stella Artois over the years, this collaboration reflects our shared commitment to craftsmanship, storytelling, and the beauty of slowing down.”
Adds Melania Nicholson, Head of Brand, Stella Artois South Africa. “The Pole Pole Collection is a reminder that life’s finer details reveal themselves when we slow down. At Stella Artois, we believe the best things- shared meals, beautiful design, meaningful connection – are #WorthMore when they’re unhurried. A bespoke showpiece has been crafted exclusively for Stella Artois, bringing our global ‘Worth More’ philosophy to life through quality, intentionality, and elevated moments that rise above the ordinary.
