At the just concluded Arise Fashion Week 2019, artisanal fashion label, Nkwo, presented its Autumn/Winter 2019 Fashion Collection.
Unlike the sleek designs we saw from most designers who showcased at the event, Nkwo’s fashion collection was a jumble of different pieces of fabric. It was interesting and I really liked it because it was different.
More interesting was the idea behind the collection. For the Nigerian brand, the impact that fashion has on the environment and the issue of recycling, are their focal point this year and from here on- a decision many fashion brands have taken up.
So the brand tried something different, recreating standout fashion pieces from waste, leftover fabrics and upcycled jeans into a collection the brand calls PRETTY THINGS.
I personally think the collection is cool and arty and would make a lovely street style look.

It is said that you should love what you do and I do that here in Belijose's Fashion Hauz. I love female clothing, style and fashion; I love how designers transform a fabric to fit the unique silhouette of a woman's body; I like how stylists and fashion lovers are able to interpret a designer's work in a way that they themselves make it their own; how a piece of jewelry makes all the difference and how less can be more; I like the excitement of the red carpets; I love fashion week and I hope to go for one someday; most importantly I love sharing with the Hauz what I think and feel about a particular style from any part of the world; I like sharing my music, my food experiments, music and videos, and I love that you get to read and like or comment. This is my little corner of the world where everything is possible.
