#HeinekenLFDW2015 – Day 4: Ade Bakare’s “Masai” Collection
The 2015 Heineken Lagos Fashion & Design Week is had come to an end, but we are still dishing and gushing on the collections that showed.
Now, we have Ade Bakare‘s “Masai” collection!
Inspired by the Masai tribe of East Africa, the new collection feeds off the tribe’s colourful way of dressing and the beauty of their nomadic nature. To create the collection, Ade Bakare researched into the Masai’s use of fabric, beads and adornment and translated them into tribal & ethnic pieces that lay foundation for structured silhouettes for Spring/Summer 2016.
Some key influences are the beautiful jackets cut with high necks and delicately beaded in various colours, silk dresses cut at the waist to flow at the heels in orange, purple and fuchsia hues and much more.
