So what do you think of this power of two ? Is it one of your favorite fashion houses? designers? would you like to see more from them . Always let me know if there are any other designers you’d like to see spotlighted on Ciaafrique in the future . I love African fashion !!!!!!! do you?
I do love African fashion, but I'm getting a little tired of seeing so many designers use ankara. I'd like to see them push themselves a little more and give as a new interpretation of 'African fashion'

ReplyDeleteIt is the African prints that sets us apart from the mainstream designers though, it's what makes us unique. I think it should not be completely removed from the collections but be creatively incorporated is ways that are not obvious or done :)
