AFRICAN FASHION DESIGNER:LOZA MALEOMBHO

According to her Website "Brazilian born and of Ivorian and Centrafrican origins, Loza Maléombho was raised in Abidjan, Côte-d’Ivoire (W. Africa.) At age 14 and still ignorant of Fashion design as a profession, she found interest in designing dresses for her mother aunts and sisters and put together fashion competitions for her cousins. It wasn’t until 2000, that she moved to the United States. In 2006 she graduates from the University of the Arts of Philadelphia then moves to New York City with a mission to gain fashion experience.
Loza Maléombho has been described as “African street chic fashion. The label is a high street fashion brand founded in 2009 and based in New York City. "
  
 The one thing that differentiate designers is the uniqueness of their designs  . As I saw these pictures I was very much impressed by the uniqueness of the  collection. Here is a sneak peek of her debut collection.You can see the rest on her website here
