Nigerian luxury design house Jewel by Lisa  introduced their latest collection at the MTN Lagos Fashion & Design Week 2012. I am a big fan of Jewel by Lisa and they have released amazing collections in the past but this is not one of my favorite ones. The collection is very coherent and  well executed but I am just not feeling the prints. It looks sad , but way better than some other collections I have seen on the same runway. You can check out previous collection of JBL here and be the judge.
