Arise Africa Fashion Week: Eyola

Nigerian label, Eyola presented a collection that engaged the audience in a fantasy with hoop skirts, metallic corsets and archery type dresses. However, in the collection, she also presents very wearable piece, which can be easily translated from the runway. These pieces are given a classic touch with lace, and also a bit of attitude with the 80’s dramatic shoulders!
