"ADIRE MEETS MODERNITY"- VIEW THE ADE BAKARE SPRING/SUMMER 2014 COLLECTION

Presenting the 2014 collection by London-based Nigerian designer Ade Bakare titled “Adire Meets Modernity“

The collection, which is based solely on the Nigerian textile – adire {tie & dye in Yoruba} – became a source of inspiration for Ade due to his constant travels to Nigeria. Ade said, “I became interested in this rare textile and was intrigued the way it was made, However I felt it could be made in more luxurious fabrics which would endear it to more people and international appeal”. He worked with various adire manufacturers and brought a lot silks from his London, England design studio for them to work with. The result is the new collection for summer 2014 titled “Adire meets Modernity”.

With recognition for his evening wear line, his bridal line & couture perfume “Breeze”, Ade created a collection that is more structured, retaining the elements of the adire with a touch of evening glamour. The collection features puff sleeves, embellished blouses sparked with crystals, sashes, flounces and bows in silks such as gazar and organza.

Get Your Rich Aunty Vibe On!!!

If you didn’t know, the official theme for this year’s Christmas is "Rich Aunty Vibes". Last Christmas was a pandemic of who wore the longest Bone Straight hairs, but this year we seem to have embraced our “look-rich-to-feel-rich” culture even further with the maxi gowns and the headbands that scream it out loud. The Rich Aunty is that one aunty in everyone's lives (fictional or real) who radiates an affluent, sophisticated vibe with her fashion sense. There are simple ways to spark off that vibe on even the tiniest budget. Yes that's right you really don't have to rob a bank on this one cos we've got you 😉. Although most times it isn't cheap to look the part but if you follow these cues closely, you'll have a smooth transition to the Rich Aunty lifestyle in no time. 1. Bubu/Maxi gowns: The gown is of course the rich aunty starter pack, but it does not qualify you for the title just by wearing it. As stylish, sophisticated, and very fashion
