Collection: IMPEPHO PART 1

IMPEPHO – A Scented Ancestral Awakening

Impepho is the inaugural scent-led collection from SIXX6, fusing fashion with ritual and memory. Rooted in the spiritual Xhosa practice of burning impepho to invoke ancestral presence, the collection reimagines scent as a sixth sense—a vehicle of heritage, emotion, and divine guidance. Each garment translates the metaphysical into form through textured fabrications, sensual cuts, and embellishments that echo both ritual and rebellion. Earth tones, smoke-like sheers, and ancestral silhouettes carry the energy of sacred smoke rising. Impepho is not just a collection—it is a spiritual transmission. It evokes a call to remember, to honour, and to transcend. This is fashion for those who know they are guided, for bodies that carry stories, and for spirits that refuse to forget. Through this collection, SIXX6 shifts the runway into sacred ground—where art, identity, and ancestral legacy move as one
