MAHASIMBI · YEAR OF THE LOTUS


Fresh off the back of a powerful hometown show at London’s O2 Arena, Maharishi's Hardy Blechman and Simbi Ajikawo, aka Little Simz, announce MAHASIMBI — a creative partnership merging music, fashion, and cultural symbolism.




As part of Simz’s critically acclaimed Lotus tour, MAHASIMBI brings bespoke stagewear to life, pairing Maharishi’s signature craftsmanship with Little Simz’s fearless, genre-defying artistry. Each look has been custom-designed for the stage, drawing on deep symbolism to reflect the spirit of the Lotus project.




Key pieces from the collection feature a unique camouflage that blends Maharishi’s signature DPM: Bonsai Tigerstripe with vibrant lotus motifs—a symbol of transformation and resilience and the title of Simz’ latest album. Tour jackets showcase bespoke embroidered patches representing each track from the Lotus album and each city visited, in colourways inspired by Simbi’s synesthesia, while designs like the MA-1 inspired nylon skirt balance utilitarian structure with graceful movement.
Sustainable materials, including textiles crafted from lotus fibres, highlight the collaboration’s commitment to nature, craftsmanship, and innovation. Select styles from the collection are set to be released in limited quantities, offering fans a rare opportunity to own a part of this collaboration.




With the European Lotus Tour now complete, Little Simz heads to North America, kicking off in Toronto on October 27th 2025 and including stops in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
