Such a Tease!

Ghanian designer Christi Brown teased us with a few pictures from her Spring 2016 line, and so far the pics are giving major bridal inspiration. What do you think?

Runway Fresh: Lanre DaSilva Ajayi (LDA) for Lagos Fashion and Design Week 2015

In a short statement about the inspiration for the S/S 2016 "Geometric Fusion" collection, the brand explains that the collection is "[h]eavily influenced by geometry" and "uses tie-dye from Nike Art Gallery and digital images to create hexagon ad triangle tessellation prints."  Innovative, yet reflective of culture.  Fabulous!  Check out a few of my favorites from the collection below:

Table for 6 African Fashion Merchandizing Event featuring Madame Wokie, WINTERIZED!

My super smart and connected cousin Sudie invited me to an event focusing on African Fashion Merchandizing, where industry experts would be on-hand to discuss fashion design, manufacturing and compliance. Since the winter has been frigid this year, I "winterized" this short summer frock by adding knee boots, tights and a cropped coat.
