London based Nigerian label Asake
Oge‘s Timeless Heritage collection is an explosion of colors
and a witty injection of glittering doodads too. At first look the
photography strikes you but still leaving you in a sane enough state to
experience the clothes visually. I love the interesting fabrication and
fusion of color in the jumpsuit above as well as loose silhouette of
most of the pieces.
“Timeless Heritage” is a tribute to the
matriarchs in my family my grandmother passed on a fashion legacy to my
mother and her sisters and this was passed on to me. Each dress has been
named after these seven women.
I have drawn inspiration from nature, a
tropical paradise setting with a colour palette of Red, Blue and Yellow;
Yellow for the sun, Blue for the skies and ocean and Red for the
sunset, flowers and passion. Staying true to the Asakeoge ethos of using
bold bright colours, these pieces are the core of a 30 piece collection
which will continued with the autumn winter collection. The
timelessness is conceived in the use of luxurious French Silk, French
Cotton and Silk Jersey made into garments with classic silhouettes that
would stand the test of time. Less is more as the bright colours, soft
flowing fabrics and bright prints speak for themselves.
With pieces ranging from evening wear,
bridal, red carpet to day wear, there’s something for every woman. You
are not afraid to standout because the Asakeoge woman is a trendsetter
not a fashion follower.
OH THERE’S MORE, JUMP IN & SEE
