.When it rains, it pours in Lagos. However heavy electrical storms weren’t enough to keep the fashion group coming from the Emmy Kasbit program, which was actually the standout of time three at Lagos Fashion Week.It’s been actually one decade given that Emmanuel Okoro started the label, as well as this selection, labelled Memoir, was actually an ode to his evolution. “I really did not desire to put out one thing new I intended to assess the adventure thus far as well as what I have actually achieved,” he stated backstage.
That suggested drawing ideas from the older post. A yellow midi outfit including a hand design that became part of Okoro’s very first Lagos Fashion Week collection in 2017 was actually rejuvenated as a digital printing. “Our team decided to upgrade what our team’ve constantly carried out,” he stated, adding that the target was to make these printings extra accessible to today’s target market through recreating them in brand-new shapes as well as colorways.
Take Look 26, where he combined Awkete (a conventional hand-woven fabric of Igbo sources) with silk to create a crossbreed trouser.Elsewhere, Okoro launched new electronic prints, which were actually created by a small area of craftsmens in India. Standout looks consisted of a white colored sports jacket with a navy-blue block printing dress layered on the top, and also a men’s hand-dyed indigo tee shirt as well as shorts prepared. Other opportunities he experimented with various weaving as well as coloring procedures, making unique items that will definitely talk with the style followers in Nigeria and also abroad.
