EBIB
Every Body Is Beautiful
Welcome to EBIB! Our mission is to blend faith and fashion, creating styles that reflect both beauty and purpose. Inspired by James 1:17, "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father," we believe that true identity goes beyond what we wear. Every piece is designed not just to dress you, but to tell a story and bring glory to the Lord.
About EBIB
Brand EBIB began in 2018 as a self-initiated university project. The goal was to explore what was affecting mental health, and after gathering data, it was realised that self-image was a major factor influencing people’s well-being and self-esteem. This sparked a passion to create something meaningful, a space to use the platform to make a positive impact.
Fashion with Purpose
EBIB is committed to creating fashion that inspires while driving positive economic and social impact through sustainable and ethical practices. As a brand, work places a strong focus on the caring and economic side of the fashion industry, exploring how creativity and design intersect with mental health and wellbeing. Using fashion and art as tools for positive change, addressing real needs, fostering inclusion, and contributing to healthier communities.
Celebrating Heritage and Diversity
More than a celebration of African fashion, EBIB honours its elegance, diversity, and rich cultural roots. It creates a space where creativity thrives, perspectives converge, and inclusivity shapes the future, inspiring cultural pride and connection.
Sustainability at the Core
From printmaking to garment design, every step is crafted with care. Offering designs for rent or custom-made helps reduce waste and encourages conscious consumption. EBIB is more than a brand, it’s a journey of culture, creativity, community, and purpose. Every garment tells a story, inviting those who wear it to be part of it.
About Sheila Langton
Hello, I’m Sheila Langton, a dedicated servant of Jesus Christ and the proud owner of EBIB. I was born in Sierra Leone, West Africa, and have lived in the UK since the age of 7. From a young age, I knew that fashion and art brought me great joy. It was a passion that resonated deeply within me. However, I didn't know how to channel this passion; my true identity behind it all felt lost until Jesus Christ found and saved me. Through Him, I realised that this gift from God is more than just a passion; it was about telling a story that reflects His love and transformative power through my life.
Being a designer, especially here and now, has not been easy. I've faced many obstacles, numerous ups and downs, sleepless nights, financial struggles, and countless rejections. There have been times of doubt, tears, and financial loss. Yet, through it all, these challenges have not only built me but also shaped me into who I am today. I've met incredible people from the start of my career as a designer.
Every person who has supported, encouraged, and helped shape my vision has played a crucial role in this journey. This path wouldn’t have been possible without every single individual I have encountered at different stages of my life. It is through the blessings of all the people God has placed in my life and continues to do so that I have become who I am today.
Proverbs 3:5-6
