Designer Toju Foyeh still continues to generate buzz for the talent which she expresses through her label, and with the release of her new collection, she ensures that the buzz still remains. This collection serves as a preview of what is to be expected from her Summer Collection.
What is the name of the new collection?
This is just a mini-collection before I launch my summer collection. I will refer to it as a pre-summer collection. It give s an idea of what my summer collection would be like.
What’s the inspiration behind the collection?
Summer generally: the sun, the beach…the outdoors.
What fabrics did you use for the pieces in this collection?
Ankara, Silk, Raw silk, French Lace, Damask and Chiffon.
What’s the colour Palette of the Collection?
I used lots of bright colours because they are summer clothes and I wanted it to reflect the spirit of summer.
What sort of girl do you see wearing the new collection?
I think someone girly and chic because the dresses in this collection are made from bright coloured fabrics. However, I feel it can also appeal to girls who generally love to go out and enjoy the sun…enjoy the season really!

its refreshing to see new designs and fabrics come into play here.
I’ve got to add that:
this is really haute for a mini/pre-collection. it floors many of the other designers’ total collections.
i cant wait to see the ACTUAL summer collection !
Nice design and material…
but WHY does everyone in Naija have a clothing line??? Like, i really don’t get it!!!
Once we see one person venture into something and succeed, the whole country wanna hop on the same business…Abeg, give me something else that will “Woa” me…
i loved all the outfits! i want to get a hold of these outfits somewhere, i must wear them. i miss nigeria so much!
i know i would look good in these clothes since im the same height and about the same size as the last girl.
the models look really good too, not like those starved american, european, and asian models. african models look the best and the most healthy. thanks again bella!
