IMANE AYISSI PRESENTS HIS SPRING/SUMMER 2012 COLLECTION IN PARIS {ARCHIVES}


 This Imane Ayassi collection was one of the best collection I have ever posted on ciaafrique. He is such an amazing designer. In case you missed it  a year and half ago you can check it out again.


           Originally posted on 7/12/11


Cameroun Designer  Imane Ayissi  recently  showcased his  summer 2012 collection in Paris. Born in Cameroon, Imane Ayissi arrived in France in 1990. This lover of fabrics has tailored for himself a strong reputation in the Afro-Caribbean community. In September 2002, he presented his eight collection Vogue Africa in the Daniel Buren Circus in Paris.Imane Ayissi draws his inspiration from the pre-colonial Black continent to create a global fashion which goes beyond the ethnic label. He works his fabrics in a soft and pure way in order to reveal harmony and magnify the elegance of women, elegance being the key-word of this creator. Chic, distinction and a touch of aristocracy are features of his dresses. Innate respect of women that reveals without undressing and suggests the body rather than shows it, is characteristic of this designer who resorts to some daring to help those he dresses with their seductive power.Entire collection after the jump.

JEWEL BY LISA -- MTN LAGOS FASHION AND DESIGN WEEK 2012



MTN Lagos Fashion and deisgn week: Jewel by lisa nigerian fashion design


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.
