Manhattan has become the playground for Nigerian designers. Building on the momentum from the ARISE Promise Collective, designers Lanre Da Silva-Ajayi, House of J’Ola, Hallero and Zizi presented at the Couture Fashion Week event held at the Waldorf=Astoria this past Sunday. As a group, their collections were awe-inspiring and focused on luxury and haute couture.
