The just concluded Arise Fashion Week that took place in Lagos Nigeria, with seventy-seven collections over the course of five days. It was Arise Fashion week. But you'd almost think it was new york fashion week. With Top Models like Alek Wek, Oluchi Onweagba & Georgie Badiel. From African grab by Local Labels to Abstract once. Dig even deeper and you'll see more than clothes on parade...
Well it was Lagos, but the collection could pass head designs anywhere from Paris to Milan to London.... The interesting thing about these list are the numbers of Nigerian Designers. FABULOUS, I'd say. Raw Talents and all
