Our Clients

From luxurious lodges to boutique hotels and high-end restaurants, discover the Desmé Designs difference: uniforms designed with excellence, creativity, unexpected charm and sustainability at their core.

“Desmé Designs has been working with us since 2016 when we refurbished our andBeyond Ngala Safari Lodge. We introduced new uniforms to our butler and housekeeping teams and subsequently all our South African, Southern and East African lodge teams can be seen in Desmé Designs. It is important for our staff to look and feel good in their clothing and Desmé always accommodates us with new ideas, styles and improvements. The quality of the clothing and workmanship is of a high standard, and we would readily recommend Desmé to other potential customers.”

Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence are evident in every aspect of their work.
